Volunteer Open House

We invite anyone interested in becoming a volunteer at the Kalmar Nyckel Foundation to attend a Volunteer Open House every fall or winter. Meet our crew during an info session and get free tours of our ship deck and Maritime Center.

Learn to sail and maintain the  Kalmar Nyckel, become an educator, offer tours, and help at festivals and events through our volunteer program. Visit us for a two-hour Open House where we will share information about our crew training program, the latest volunteer openings, and give tours of the Tall Ship of Delaware and our Copeland Maritime Center.  Please plan to attend the entire session in order to hear a formal presentation and experience a guided ship tour starting at 10:00am.
