Come Join in the Fun!
NHS Bands — marching band in particular — needs a great deal of support to continue to be a successful and proud program. We welcome and appreciate your participation!
A parent/guardian meeting will be held early in the school year to discuss volunteer opportunities for the current season and throughout the school year. If you would like to let us know about your availability to contribute your time/talents, click on the orange button ⬇︎ to fill out our volunteer information form.
Please sign up for our NHS Bands Newsletter. We announce volunteer opportunities for all NHS bands in the newsletter, as needed.
We use SignUp Genius to organize volunteers. If you don’t have a SignUp Genius account, you will need to register first, and then you can access the signup at any time.
How Can You Help?
Equipment Transport
If you have a large vehicle, we could use your help to transport the following equipment to and from Everly Montgomery Field at Longmont High School:
Large instruments (vibraphone, marimba, xylophone, guitar and bass amps)
Ladders for drum majors
Podium for drum majors
Water wagon and dispenser
Individual student water bottles (transport from warm-up area to the field)
Volunteer Coordinator
Create a Sign-up Genius to recruit and coordinate volunteers throughout the year. Work with Mr. Hendricks on specific tasks needed.
Snacks for Saturday Rehearsals
We provide light breakfast items and mid-practice snacks (such as Otter Pops) to our Marching Band and Color Guard members.
Occasional Concessions Sales
The Band is asked to sell concessions at a few home football games.
Pizza Dinner
We provide a pizza dinner for our Marching Band and Color Guard members before the last home football game.
Graphic Design
For our Evergreen, Spectacle and Crossroads concerts, we need a graphic designer to create printed programs.
Advertising Sales
To help cover the cost of commercial printing for our concert programs we need a volunteer to help contact local businesses to inquire about placing ads in our programs. We have some leads, so it would (mostly) be a matter of following up and maintaining communications with potential advertisers.
Website Maintenance
We need help keeping the website up to date with text, photos, and forms, and with updating the NHS Bands website calendar (Tockify).
Photography
If you enjoy taking photos/video we really need your help! Especially if you own a camera that can capture great photos and video from a distance. Help us to keep our website and Instagram “fresh” with updated photos/video of events and performances from all NHS Bands!
