Do
you know what it takes to support this band?
Taking a marching band the size
of ours to contests requires enormous amounts of volunteer time, effort, money, food and equipment. We need your
help so here is a rough idea of what's involved:
|
|
|
- Five full size school buses or charter buses
- Adult sponsors for each bus
- Large cargo
truck for pit equipment & support
- Enclosed trailer for percussion / Drumline equipment
- Enclosed
trailer for 230 uniforms
- Enclosed trailer for food and cooking supplies (tables, water, tent, etc)
- Two open
utility trailers for transporting Gator, generators and other misc equipment (Gator is used on site for transporting
heavier equipment at contest)
- Support vehicles for pulling trailers
- Giant tent for meal preparations
- Numerous
large propane stoves for meal preparations
- Food for 500 meals PER contest (usually two meals for the day)
- Volunteers
for assisting with uniforms and pluming
- Volunteers to assist with water/drinks to/from competition site while marching
- Volunteers for meal preparation and serving
- Volunteers for moving contest equipment
That's
for just one weekend competition! We usually attend four competitions during September and October so your
help is greatly needed!
Football games require:

with uniforms and plumingVolunteers to assist with water/drinks after half-time performance Volunteers
