Visitor Information Centre Overview - Millmerran Visitor Information Centre

Millmerran Visitor Information Centre

The Millmerran Visitor Information Centre (VIC) is the primary location for visitors and locals to gather tourist and service information about this region and beyond. The team consists of a group of volunteers and coordinator who each dedicate their time to provide assistance to visitors and fellow residents. Without volunteers the Millmerran Visitor Information Centre would not be able to provide the high level of service visitors to the area have come to appreciate as a part of our friendly hospitality.


Volunteer roles and duties

As a volunteer you will assist in a wide variety of tasks. These include providing information to the public, recording visitor statistics, assisting with office procedures, keeping brochure racks stocked, tidying the information centre, selling items from our small range of merchandise and helping out by utilising other skills you have acquired over the years.

Volunteers must be available for at least one shift per month. Shifts are currently half a day, from 10am–12.30pm or other times when needed. Volunteers are required to attend on-going training sessions throughout the year.

As a volunteer, you will be rostered with another volunteer or staff member for a period of time until you are comfortable working without assistance.
