Crown
Point State Historic Site is seeking volunteers to assist with an archaeological
excavation on the site grounds. Volunteers will be excavating earthen mounds that remain from a previous
project conducted in the 1960s. The
mounds contain soil removed from areas around the 18th century
fortifications and were never processed or sifted for artifacts. Participants can expect to dig through,
sift, and process material culture and artifacts left behind by the soldiers
and civilians who lived at Crown Point in the mid-1700s. No previous archaeological experience is
necessary. Volunteers will be trained in
archaeological techniques on-site and can expect a moderate amount of physical
labor including digging, lifting, and carrying. Interested volunteers can contact the historic
site at (518) 597-4666.
