(Read pages 17 - 18 & 19 in “The ideals of ESA” book for this lesson.)

As a new member of ESA you have only begun to realize the many benefits of belonging to ESA. The best by far is the friendships that ESA offers throughout the United States and Australia. As with any membership – you will get the most from what you are willing to contribute back to the membership. Make no mistake – YOU ARE IMPORTANT TO US!

ESA has developed into a premier leadership organization and it offers to open doors to its members by giving them developmental growth in many areas. You can also take advantage of all that ESA offers.

Read the “ADDITIONAL BENEFITS OF MEMBERSHIP” on page 17.

Through the years our organization has adapted to member needs regarding the types of membership that we make available. There are 13 different classifications of membership in ESA. Read about them on pages 18 & 19 then complete the matching quiz below:

You have almost successfully completed the 8 Pledge lessons. You will need to send your points for lesson 4 that you tabulated for your FIRST PEARL and tell the pledge master if you have memorized the opening and closing rituals. The Pledge Master will mail your “Certificate of Completion” as soon as that is completed. If it is your desire - we would be honored to present your “Certificate of Completion” at convention. Please let me know if you plan to attend convention this year.

We are proud that you have chosen to become a part of ESA and hope that when you receive your Jewell Pin that you have been enriched by the knowledge you have gained and will continue the traditions and history that is so much a part of ESA.
