Elder Services Network Providing leadership in our communities to meet the needs of seniors About Elder Services Network Note from the Executive Director The programs and services offered by ESN would not be possible without the caring, dedication and tireless efforts of the volunteers. Many of the volunteers are seniors themselves. College students, homemakers and people still employed add to our pool of volunteers. The characteristics volunteers have in common are their concern for their fellow human beings and the desire to make their community a better place. I congratulate our volunteers on their many hours of service and I most gratefully thank them. In 1999 the groceries program was started in Hibbing and Virginia. The Super One markets in both communities came on board and have been extremely supportive in the ensuing years. As the program has grown to other areas on the Range more grocery stores and markets have joined with ESN. A big thank you is extended to the managers, cashiers, bookkeepers and other employees for being part of the success of the Groceries to Go program.
