Hampton National Historic Site
Support Your Park

Hampton NHS depends upon a wide variety of support to help meet its mission to protect the historic resources and to promote the historic significance of the site now and for future generations. There are many ways you can help - click on the hotlinks for more details!.

Become a volunteer! Volunteering is a fun and exciting way you can contribute to your National Park. Hours are flexible. Many opportunities are available whether helping in visitor services, maintenance or our living history program.

Join Historic Hampton, Inc. - the cooperating association helps to raise funds and is instrumental in sponsoring large events.

Donate directly. Anyone can give financially to the park. Funds so donated stay here and go towards helping pay for items and services not normally possible due to budget constraints.

Consider full or part time employment. Each year National Parks across the country count on seasonal staff to help with the increased summer visitation.

Milk Cows  

Did You Know?
The dairy business at Hampton once produced over 1,000 pounds of butter every year. The milk that the Ridgelys produced was mostly mixed into the slops for the pigs instead of being sold.
