Volunteer Opportunities for YOU!

Band Camp

July 21-25 2025 Signup by July 18

Assist purchasing, preparing, and cooking a meal(s) during band camp evenings for the kids.   We establish themed nights in our Sign-Up Genius to assist you for each evening, which includes transporting the meal to the school during dinnertime (around 4:30 pm), serving the children, and cleaning up afterwards.

Our largest fundraiser. All band students will travel through Forge-districted neighborhoods in their uniforms to engage with the community and seek their financial support of our band program.  We rely on parent volunteers to use specific routes already developed by the Boosters to drive students around the neighborhoods.  This is a really big financial fundraiser for the band program.  Look for a Sign-Up Genius.  ​

Another big fundraiser.  Parents are needed to help set-up the concession stand ahead of the start time of the football games, run the concession stand during the game, and help take down, and count money, after the game.

We like to have parents maintain constant oversight of the students, ride the school buses with the band directors, and assist students during events with any needs or requests, and ensure overall order.​

Spring Trip

December 9 & 13

CLOSED

Colonial Forge hosts both assessments, minimizing travel for our students and enabling them to play at their home high school. Parents are needed to help sign-in participants, escort them to the correct scoring rooms for judging, and assist judges in scoring rooms in December.

Students enjoy going on an annual trip together to Disney World and/or Universal Studios.  While this has been a tradition, we have not been able to travel for the past few years due to COVID and conflicting schedules with the school and music calendar.  It is a tremendous amount of planning with the destination site, bus companies, hotels, school schedules, and payment, that we really need one person devoted to planning this effort, and starting very soon, due to scheduling time with Disney and/or Universal Studios.  If you are able to lead this effort, it would be greatly appreciated, or, work with someone else to do so.  The Board will keep these personnel up-to-date on available dates. ​
