SYS Committee Interest Form
The Spokane Youth Symphony is developing several committees, headed by SYS Board Members, and non-board participation is needed to fill out each committee. Participation on a committee (which would include monthly meetings) through the 2026-27 season will qualify as volunteer hours (toward the required 9 hours per family for the year).

Please complete the form below if you are interested in participating in one of the the committees listed. The chair-person for that committee will connect with you so you can determine the viability of taking part in that committee. The volunteer hours will be earned if an individual actually participate on a committee. We look forward to hearing from many of you who might be interested in contributing to SYS in this unique way.
