WE NEED TRUCK DRIVERS!
Truck drivers are like the backbone of every performance. Without the instruments and uniforms, the show cannot go on. Please consider helping out by signing up HERE to drive one of three trucks to our upcoming performances. Thank you!  

A HUGE THANK YOU to all of the volunteers who helped out at last week’s game! We hope you enjoyed seeing your student(s) perform, as well as meeting other band parents! Did you know that it takes 300+ volunteers to support marching band each season? We can only do this with your support and sincerely appreciate anything you can do to help! Thank you to those of you who have already signed up! There are still many opportunities available to help for 1-2 hours, or at every performance. Sign up HERE. Want to help, but not sure where?
