Mentor Program

Remember back to the days when you were a new band parent and felt completely lost regarding Band Camp, Band-Aids and all things related to marching band? This year, to help aleviate the confusion, a mentor program has been set up to help all newcomers. If you're an experienced parent, please feel free to volunteer to help our new members. Those interested should contact Crystal Rumph, President of the Band-Aids.

The resonsibilities are simple. The mentors will set up a time to go through the handbook with a freshman family (in person) and then invite them to the first show in order to make them feel comfortable.
