Why not use the younger people's computer skills? Younger volunteers could help produce interactive displays, work on the group's Web site, set up databases on the history of equipment, and use computers to produce signeage for the historic displays.
The last item is often a major problem at smaller museums. Yes, there are items on display, but often very little information about them.
