We will be having a meeting on Tuesday, January 11th at 6:30pm in the Band Room to go over all the details that need to be taken care of. We are going to need many volunteers to help make this a well-run pageant so please plan to be in attendance. We need adults as well as students to be available.
Here is a list of volunteer positions so you can be thinking of how you would like to help:
Photographer’s Helper (2)
Registration (4)
Hospitality for the judges (1)
Concession Stand (?)
Set-up (as many as can be there Friday night! The more available, the quicker it will go.)
Take down/clean-up (again, as many as can be available)

Door Guards/room monitors – we will have to watch the doors more carefully as there are several additional ones at the school
