Chaperones: Take attendance on buses, inspect uniforms at the competition, help with plume distribution, provide water and basic first aid as needed before/during/after competition. Chaperones are able to see our band perform.
Equipment Crew: The Equipment Crew will meet at the GBS football field for a final run through with the band, then help load moving truck with equipment before our departure for each competition. Unload truck and assist during the competition, reload truck, then return to GBS to unload and help in returning equipment to the band room. (Departure time from the competition site TBD, as we may bring equipment back ahead of band’s return.)
2 Drivers are also needed to drive the 2 trucks full of equipment/props both to & from the competition site.

We also watch over the bleachers where the students will leave their things. Please wear your yellow chaperone shirt to be easily identified. Report to the band room at 6 pm and check in with the Chaperone Chairs.
Equipment Crew: Help move equipment/props onto/off the field. Meet in front of the equipment shed, which is located under the south end of the home-team bleachers.

Band Families: Please join other band families at the game!! A group of us have been sitting in the bleachers right next to the band at the north end of the stadium. It’s a great way to meet other families, cheer the band on as a group, & see your band student up close.
