Home Depot Performance (select students only)

Some students may have been asked to perform at a special Home Depot gig.  This will take place at the Seminole Home Depot next to Burlington Coat Factory.  Frequently, the community will ask for band performances at the events in return for a donation of materials, monies, or services.  The Seminole Warhawk Band Program is a proud participant and commnity partner in these ventures.  Because of the extreme hour of this event, please communicate with Mr. Madrinan directly for conflicts.  A minimal number of students, based on instrumentation, have been asked to represent the Warhawks for this event.  

Dress is Khaki shorts/pants, band polo, belt, and closed toe sneakers;  they will be using marching band instruments and flip folders/lyres- no music stands.

Time to Report Volunteer Hours

The band boosters comprise the majority of the volunteer hours at Seminole HS and it is important to the school that we log all of our hours.  You are welcome to log your hours in the volunteer system, however, we collect the hours and enter them in for you.  Please send an email with your volunteer hours listed by month from June through August that is NOT related to a signup genius event (i.e. prop construction, uniform pressing, etc.).  Volunteers/hrs are pulled from signup genius (i.e. water duty, chaperones, Trop, etc) so you don't need to report those hours. Volunteer hours can be sent to Jackie Brochman at Jacquelyn.brochman@duke-energy.com.
