About the VSO | Regional Boards


The Vermont Symphony Orchestra has re-configured its regional boards of trustees in order to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its statewide network of volunteer leaders. The re-alignment preserves the basic configuration of the Champlain Valley, Central Vermont and North Country boards, while creating new regions for Southwest Vermont, Southeast Vermont, and the Upper Valley. New trustees are welcome in all regions. If you would like to know more about trusteeship, please e-mail Alan Jordan, VSO Executive Director, or call (800) VSO-9293 x 15.
