ESM parents play a critical role in helping our program and special events run smoothly. Some jobs give you a chance to work with other parents and exchange information and experiences. We rely on parent volunteers to help with such jobs as managing the inventory of used instruments for sale by ESM families, set up and clean up at events, and various tasks at the workshop. These jobs are described in our Parent Volunteer form. We urge each family to sign up for one job during the year.
