We Need Band Camp Helpers!
We are in need of parent volunteers to help keep our students safe and healthy during band camp. Volunteers may sit (in the shade) for their shift and pass out hydration, cold packs, and cool treats as needed, as well as assist the band directors with minor medical incidents that may occur. It’s a great chance to watch your student practice and get to know our band family!
Please review the available slots below. Thank you!
