Band Boosters general membership meetings
are on the first Thursday of every month (except July
and August),
at 7:00 pm in the Band Room. An executive board
meeting occurs prior to this meeting at 6:30 pm. on
the first Thursday of every month (except July and August). All current members and anyone with an
interest in the QACHS Band programs is welcome and encouraged
to attend these general membership meetings.
The
Band Boosters is an organization consisting of parents,
guardians, friends, and family of the students participating
in the various QACHS band and color guard activities throughout
the school year. The overall mission of the Band Boosters
is to support and provide volunteer help to all the bands
in every way possible. They provide funds, equipment,
help, uniforms, transportation, chaperones, and emotional
support in order to enable the students to make the most
of their band experience.
The Band Boosters
are busy all year long with various projects. They usually
have at least one fund raising activity each month, even
during the summer. During the Marching Band season, they
follow the band everywhere to events and competitions.
These volunteers dedicatedly do everything from loading
and unloading all the equipment, helping with and handing
out uniforms, to setting up props and helping the pit.
They even make repairs when possible and build needed
items. We need many volunteers when we host a Tournament
of Bands competition for the various jobs that need to
be done. We can’t do it without volunteers. You do not
need any special skills to volunteer; it may surprise
you how much you can help. It also benefits your band
student when you come out and volunteer to help!
The Band Trip
is a big part of what the Boosters help to do each year,
giving students from all the bands a chance to visit other
cities in the area or travel to wonderful places, compete
with students from around the Mid-Atlantic region, and
experience being partly on their own for a few days.
One major source
of funds for the Band Boosters is running the concession
stand at the QACHS Stadium during home games. Whether
it is a football game in the fall or lacrosse in the spring,
the Band Boosters are there. We need many volunteers to
run the concessions stand and we encourage all parents,
guardians, family, friends, and students to come
join us and help in the stand. It is a busy but fun atmosphere,
and the more help we have, the more funds we can make
for our band students. Many pieces of new equipment have
been purchased due to the hard work in the concession
stand.
The list is
endless and we really can’t do it without you, so please
be sure to come out to a meeting and volunteer for something.
Or you can contact the band boosters via email to see
what you can do. We welcome all volunteers.
