We have been invited to volunteer for the FMEA conference in January 2019. The Conference runs from Wednesday, January 9th through Saturday, January 12th. The conference is being held at the Tampa Convention Center. The Seminole High School Band Boosters volunteer at this event running the registration area and selling tickets for the various All State Concerts.
Please sign up 1 per person - meaning - your name = 1 person. If you are signing up your spouse to work, please go back in and sign them up individually (scroll down to use the alternate name). Be sure to include your cell phone number. Dress is business casual.
Things to know before signing up to volunteer:
- Volunteers need to attend the training taking place on Wednesday, Jan. 9th beginning at 9:00 am.
- You need to sign up for a full day of volunteering, unless other arrangements are made in advance.
- Volunteers will receive a light breakfast and coffee, lunch and an afternoon snack.
- You are required to pay for your own parking, so it is best to carpool.
- SHS Boosters will receive a donation which will be equally divided amongst the volunteers.
