MMP BOOSTERS & WHO WE ARE

The Mighty Marching Pirate Boosters is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting our all programs under the FBHS bands. They coordinate all the volunteers and needs for all the different events throughout the year. They do fundraising activities to financially support the band with things like the fall show, competition fees, props, costumes for the show, uniforms and other band needs. There is a board of 5 members. Voting for board members and officers happens each spring. All parents are encouraged to participate, attend booster meetings and to be involved as much as possible.

Band Booster Meetings

Volunteers

There are many opportunities throughout the band season to volunteer in various ways. The Band Boosters utilizes signups on Booster Hub to organize all the volunteers and needs for each event. Feel free to sign up for as much as you like. The band would love any help they can get. Some of the help that is needed through the marching season include working the concession stand, checking in/out uniforms, distributing and collecting plumes, pulling the trailer to competitions, feeding the band/color guard, hauling props, bus and bleacher chaperones, and making donations of food.

Each year, it is required to completed a new Nassau County School District Volunteer Application. These applications expire on June 30th. 

Notes for Volunteers

• Concession Shifts: please wear you hair back and a hat (or we have hair nets) and closed toe shoes. You name will be placed on a list at the entry gate and you should be able to enter free of charge. 
• Bus Chaperones ride the bus with the band and enter all events for free. Bus Chaperones are in charge of making sure the bus has snacks, bottled waters, the "band box", first aid kit and medical paperwork. The first aid kit goes where the students go. 
• Competitions: spectator parking will separate from where the band parks, it is helpful to have the phone numbers of other boosters so you can find the band after you park
• Invest in a good bleacher seat. You will be sitting in the stands a lot over these next four years.

Parent Involvement = A Successful Band Program
