It takes a small army of our parent volunteers to help out in the various band related activities all year long. Football season is upon us and we need YOUR help! Concessions, Grills, Equipment, and Chaperone volunteer positions are critical in assisting with the success of the band. Don’t be shy! We have all had that “first time” experience and will show you everything you need to know. Current Volunteer sign-up opportunities can be found by clicking HERE. If you have any general questions, Tina Mellon, our volunteer coordinator, can be reached by email at volunteer@gchsharkband.com. If you have questions about specific volunteer opportunities, committee chairs and event coordinator contact information is available by clicking HERE. THANK YOU!
If you plan to volunteer in any capacity this year, whether a NEW volunteer or an EXPERIENCED volunteer, you will need to attend this orientation. CCPS volunteer policies and procedures have changed and it’s imperative that all volunteers are provided the current information. We hope to see you there!

The HundredX fundraising campaign is now LIVE!!!! This is the easiest fundraiser you’ll ever do!! Text “August” to 90412. Answer a few questions, select GCHS Marching Band and the band team you want to support. Please keep in mind, 1) participant must be 18 or older, 2) give quality feedback by not rushing through the surveys and only creating one account per person, 3) click the consent box so we can see who’s participating and you can have your name put into any prize drawings. Your personal information will NOT be shared with any third parties. Our goal is $20,000!! Together, we can make that happen!!
For those students that missed both uniform fitting dates, our makeup date is Thursday, August 4th at 5:00 p.m. in the band room. Please be prepared to pay your band fees at that time as well. Additionally, for any members of FLAG and DANCE that have yet to submit your fees, you will need to attend!!
