Uniform Washers

 

Being a uniform washer is an easy way to help the band from the comfort of your own home.

​

When:  During the fall marching band season; AFTER each performance

What/How: 

• Uniform Washers will take a set number of assigned uniforms home, wash them, and then return them to the uniform Room (in the band room) by a set date.

• Instructions are provided for the different types of uniforms.

• A schedule will be sent to each uniform washer and posted in the uniform room.

​Compass Classic & Winterfest

 

These two events require "all hands on deck!"  Compass Classic is our marching band competition that we host on the second Saturday of October. Winterfest is our guard, percussion, and winds competition, usually held in February. Our campus fills with students, parents, and staff from all across North Carolina, and even neighboring states. Volunteer information comes out two to three months ahead of the event with details for signing up for jobs such as parking, concessions, hospitality, warm-up monitors, etc.
