Football Season – Dates on the calendar
Home games are listed. May go to Arcadia game, this is a big game and a rival team. Band Booster President will be at all games and competitions.
Volunteer Staffing
Concessions Stand - Volunteers for concessions stand will need to get a food handler’s card. These are free for volunteers. Test booklet, locations, and hours of operation are listed on the Charms website. Mlee can also e-mail you a copy of the booklet. There are 20 simple questions on the test. This card is good for 3 years and must be carried on you when working the concessions stand.
Set up for concessions starts at 4:30 pm. 5-6 people will be needed at all home games for concessions for set up, close down, snow-cones, popcorn, and cotton candy machines.
Hydration Team – 5 people are needed per game to help keep the band hydrated.
Fanny Runners – 2 people are needed to cover the bleachers so the band uniforms do not get dirty. These volunteers will also need to take the runners home, wash them, and bring them to the next game.
Uniforms – 2 people are needed to help Dede Powers on game and competition days to adjust uniforms. These should only be minor repairs and alterations
Braids – 2-3 volunteers to help French Braid long hair, on both girls and boys, on game days and competition days.
Spring Tour
Contact Doc if you are interested in chaperoning. The kids go for a competition as well as fun. This is an opportunity for the band to come together once again, though is not required. Students may miss one day of school, but will have sufficient notice to get their school work ahead of time. Location and dates to be announced. Chaperones must fill out an application, must be over 21, and watch a short video. Keep in mind, there are 77-83 kids in the band this year.
Competitions
This is our first State Marching Championship. We will be listed as competitive so we can compete. However, all students must be passing all of their classes. Any student with a failing grade must stand at attention on the sidelines during the performance.
Red and Blue Envelopes
These envelopes cannot go towards tax credit, but do count as a charitable tax deduction. Receipts are available. Red envelopes are for Spring Tour, Blue Envelopes are for salaries for student teachers. Each board, when filled, will bring in $5050. We will look into having boards available at games and concerts.
Tax Credit
There is a form available on the Charms website.
