Current Volunteer Opportunities!
The Woodson Marching Band cannot succeed without volunteer assistance from family members. There is a variety of volunteer tasks, beginning with summer car washes, Band Camp, Tag Day, and throughout the football and competition season. Family volunteers help students accrue points toward a Band Letter. We use Sign Up Genius for each event to manage volunteers and give proper credit.
Next Home Game of the Season!!
Thanks for all the help during our pre-tropical storm Ophelia home game and more crazy blow-away props! It is great to have a lot of help to make this event run smooth! We will be using FULL PROPS from now on and as you saw during this game it will take a few more people than usual.

*********************************
Equipment/Pit Team
Sign up to join the Equipment/Pit/Prop team for football games and competitions:
The percussion pit is bigger this year and there are going to be a lot more props so any time you can give to this fun team is helpful. We need a minimum of 12 volunteers for each performance.
Football Games: Meet at the band room at 6pm to move band equipment to the field, as well as ensure all pit gear and props are in position for the halftime show. At halftime, help move all pit equipment and all props on the field for the band’s performance, then remove it when they finish. In the event of high winds, a few parents may be asked to hide behind a prop to hold it down.
Competitions: See opportunities to load the trucks, help at the competition, and drive (need 3 truck drivers for each). Some volunteers will ride in the truck, others drive themselves. Must wear pit shirt (provided), khaki pants or shorts, and brown shoes.
Marching Competitions
Marching Competitions require assistance in getting kids in uniforms, loading up the equipment/props, chaperoning at the competition as well as working as a member of the pit crew (to assist in getting pit instruments, props and other gear on and off the field).
