Longtime volunteer Roland “Tiger” Hymel recently became the third volunteer in the Museum’s history to contribute 10,000 hours of volunteer service.

Tiger has been volunteering for over ten years and has performed many different tasks around the Museum, including selling memberships, collecting marketing surveys, and monitoring crowds in the Museum galleries.  A Vietnam War veteran and a former New Orleans firefighter, Tiger is also very active with the Boy Scouts and always volunteers to help at the Museum for our annual Boy Scout Day.  Congratulations Tiger for reaching such a remarkable milestone!
