Help Needed!

CALLING VOLUNTEERS FOR:


The SPFMBA is a very pro-active organization that relies heavily on voluntary parental support to accomplish its objectives. 

In addition to volunteering for one of the SPFMBA Executive Board positions, there are many other opportunities to lend your assistance and support to the Music Program. Many of the committees need additional help at various times throughout the year. These include: 

  • helping the Hospitality Committee serve refreshments at home football games and school concerts
  • assisting the Pit Crew in moving Marching Band equipment on and off the field during football games and competitions
  • acting as a chaperone for away football games and competitions, etc. 

In addition, there is always a need for people to collect admissions at concerts, make minor repairs on uniforms, etc.

We know that everyone today has very busy schedules - so ... if you specify that you are only able to volunteer at one event, then once you have performed that service, we will make every effort not to contact you again for the rest of the school year.

Please visit this page often to view call for volunteers.


Music Booster Volunteer Interest Form 2008-2009

The success of any organization is dependent upon the willingness of the membership to become actively involved. We are in the process of developing the Executive Board for the 2007-08 school year. Most of the committee chair positions are already filled, but don’t be discouraged, we are always in need of additional volunteers to lend a helping hand to these committees and to train as a future chairperson.
We hope one of our committees will pique your interest. Thank you in advance for volunteering your time and talent to this worthwhile organization.
This volunteer form may be returned to the “Blue Box” located in the HS music staff office or you may e-mail Joe Matrale  or Laura Matrale or contact the Chairperson directly.

ATTENTION - MARCHING BAND FAMILIES

Snack Donations Requested (Bake or Buy)



We need your help to provide snacks for the Marching Band, and the visiting band, for each
home football game and any dinner events. Each student gets a drink and 2 snacks. Volunteers each provide 24 individually wrapped snacks, a few people bake but most of us buy them! The snack can be cookies, brownies, chips, rice-crispie treats, apples, pretzels, cupcakes, bags of trail-mix.....
Email Dawn Harrison if you can help. I will let you know the date, time and where to deliver them. Most families donate two or three times each season, depending on the number of events. This is an easy way to help and the students really appreciate the snacks.
 

Questions? Dawn Harrison (928-1095)
