You Are A Big Part of Their Success
The Vandegrift Band is a student-led organization supported by the Vandegrift HIgh School Band Booster Club. Because your child is in band you ARE a member of the VHS Band Booster Club. It takes the untiring support from our Booster Club Parents, YOU, for the band to attain its highest potential. So how can you help?

Chaperones assist the students at all times: escorting them to and from the stadium during bathroom breaks, inserting and removing plumes in the student’s shakos, collecting flip folders after the Legacy performance, handing out beverages after the marching performance, preparing the bleacher area for the band before the game, ensuring the bleacher area is clean after the game, and other miscellaneous duties that may arise. You will remain in the stands with the students for the entire football game. In order to give everyone an opportunity to chaperone a football game, please do not sign up for more than 3 games.

A team of dedicated parents ensure all band members, staff, chaperones and pit vipers are fed before each game or contest and support other activities throughout the year. (Ex: Staff Appreciation Luncheon, March-A-Thon, etc.)
Questions? Email hospitality@vhsband.com.
Pit vipers help move band equipment on and off the field for performances. This includes the props, front ensemble equipment, and the drum major podiums. While the band equipment is easy to move, there will be lifting involved. You must be able to freely walk while pushing and pulling heavy equipment over 50 Lbs. Pit Vipers also help load and unload the band trailer and box trucks for away games. In order to give everyone an opportunity to participate, please do not sign up for more than 3 games (1 Home + 2 Away).
Questions? Email vp@vhsband.com or pitvipers@vhsband.com.
CONTESTS
Contests are where VHS Band and Vision compete against other programs. Use this form to express your interest in helping out – the Chaperone and Pit Viper Leads will put together their contest teams based on the interest and availability of volunteers.
THIS FORM IS NOW CLOSED FOR THE FALL 2022 SEASON – THANKS FOR EVERYONE’S INTEREST!
UNIFORMS
We make sure the band looks its best during marching and concert season. We need help fitting students as well as repairing items throughout the year. All marching uniform elastics are installed and repaired by this team as well as hems in dresses and pants during concert season. Each uniform is pressed and or steamed prior to the start of each season.
Questions? Email uniforms@vhsband.com.
TRAVEL
Travel volunteers are one of our most critical positions. We have needs in two areas:
1. We need one or two people who might be interested in getting their Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) and sometimes drive the tractor trailer rig
2. We also need folks who are willing to drive a Box Truck (no special driver’s license required)
If you might be interested in either of these – please email CJ at travel@vhsband.com
