This opening is being created because I am relocating in the next several weeks, and will mentor the new incoming director for a smooth, successful transition.

Once your application is received, the next step in the process is that you will be contacted by a GNG volunteer for a brief discussion, and if we mutually agree to move forward, you'll be registered for a speedy background check, virtual online training, and then attend a 1-hour volunteer guitar instructors orientation session plus ongoing training meetings, in your spare time most likely in Cotati or Sonoma.
