We run the concession stands during all the home football games on Friday nights. We need 21 people to staff the concession stands for each game. People are needed to cook, staff the large and small concession stands, the pizza wagon, the water wagon, and any other wagon or booth. Every band booster is expected to work at least two games. Because half-time is the busiest we watch the marching band show at away games. Operating the concession stands is one of the fundraisers for the band program.

The Choo Choo Classic is an all-day band competition hosted at HHS by the boosters and is one of our major fundraisers. Bands from around the region perform their marching routine and compete for trophies. Scholarships are offered if funds are available. Many musicians, band directors and fans attend this event. Every booster is expected to work one five-hour shift on the day of the competition. All band students are required to help during the competition and then perform an exhibition performance at the end of the day. Please see the volunteer sign-up form for specific areas where you can help.

The band boosters have wrapped holiday gifts at Northgate Mall for about 20 years. This is another major fundraiser for the band. The booth is open during mall hours from the day after Thanksgiving through closing on Christmas Eve. Two people are needed to staff the booth at all times, but more are necessary as the season progresses. Every band family is required to work five shifts. Any family member may work for a student - parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc. Additionally, each student is required to work two shifts. One of the shifts for all volunteers must be during the last week of operation. Help is also needed to transport, set-up and take down the modular booth.

This committee works on developing new ideas for fundraising. In the past we have had Coke sales, car washes, candle sales, and a yard sale. They also help solicit donations for the Choo Choo Classic. We are always open to any fundraising suggestion.

Four to six chaperones are needed for each away game and all competitions. Couples are encouraged because we especially need men in this area.

Tommy and Darlene Boatfield
Two people are needed to secure and drive a rental truck for each away event. A team of 4-6 people is needed to help with the pit instruments and color guard items for every performance.

Refreshments are provided for several events during the year: end of band camp, Choo Choo hospitality room, concerts, Awards Banquet, etc. Boosters are asked to provide and serve food.
