Skill with tools and a strong back will be helpful here. We need
several strong men and women who can attend performances to help carry
the heavy equipment and put it into place. This includes loading and
unloading the equipment truck. Workers will need to arrive a little
earlier and stay a little later and will be needed during the second
quarter, half-time, and third quarter of football games. Includes home
and away games, competitions, parades, and other performances.
This committee is very busy during the entire school year. The
responsibilities begin during band camp where we help students stay
hydrated during extremely hot days. This job of serving refreshments
continues through all the football games, competitions, and possibly
during after-school rehearsals during marching season. This group also
plays a huge part in the band car wash where we feed all the students
and parent volunteers. Lastly, we provide food and refreshments at band
parties and some away games. If you have an hour to spare during band
camp, a few hours at the car wash, or even 30 minutes at a ballgame, we
really need you!
A vital part of
the band involves keeping students
looking great! The Uniform Committee does just that. Our success
depends upon a large number of volunteers, helping in ways such as
monitoring uniform distribution on Fridays and washing shirts after the
games. The amount of time you volunteer is optional and will be
rewarded with lots of fun while getting to know the students better. No
prior experience needed!
Being a chaperone is a very rewarding experience and is something that
every parent can help with. Chaperones are always needed and
appreciated. There are numerous opportunities you can serve on to be a
part of our chaperone team. Look at these opportunities as a way for
you to be a part of your child’s experiences and as a way for you to
make life-long friendships and connections.

It
Takes
More Than One Person to Make a Band!
It takes a group of dedicated students and even
more dedicated parents to make a band program great!
The Bearden High School Band Boosters is an
organization dedicated to the support and advancement of the Bearden
Band program. With increasing numbers comes the obligation for new
uniforms, music, and more instruments. These items are not funded by
the Knox County School System.
As the parent/guardian of a Bearden band
student,
you have the unique opportunity of promoting a band program of which we
can all be proud. We need every parent to become involved in the
Bearden Band Boosters. Each parent/guardian of a band student is
already a member. No membership fee is required. All that we ask is
that you share with us your ideas and a little of your time and energy.
Everyone has something to contribute and we need each and every one of
you!
