2019 SEMINOLE VISUAL

The Seminole High School Band Aides Boosters in coordination with the Florida Federation of Color guards will host the Annual Seminole Visual Spectacular Competition on Saturday, March 16th, at the Seminole High School gym. We will need 'all hands on deck' to make this another successful event.

Schools are still signing up for this event, so we do not have the final count attending.  Shift times & quantity needed may change as we get closer to the event.

·         All volunteers need to wear their orange "SHOW HOST" shirts or the green SHS band boosters’ polo and khaki pants or shorts. Wear comfortable shoes.

·         Volunteers are not given free admission to the show unless they have volunteered/worked for eight hours or more

·         Volunteers get a meal tickets for every 4 hours that they work:

o   1 shift = 0 meal tickets

o   2 shifts = 1 meal ticket

o   3 shifts = 2 meal tickets

o   4 shifts = 3 meal tickets

·         There are several positions for students to sign up for volunteer hours.

As of 2/4/19, there are 281 volunteer positions and only 23 are filled.  We still need a lot more help in order to make this a success.

There are several items that we need to borrow or have donated in order to make this another successful event, including meals for our judge’s hospitality room.  Please look at the list below and sign up where you are able to help.  If you are letting us borrow an item, 1st THANK YOU, 2nd please make sure it is clearly marked with your family name on it so we can make sure it is returned.  If you are donating food items, please bring in a disposable container/tray if possible.

Spaghetti Dinner will be held on Friday, March 8th at the Seminole High School gym.  We have invited other Guards and Indoor Percussion groups to the show so this could turn out to be a huge event!

We need everyone’s help to make this event successful! 

·         We need 2 people to arrive at 3 pm that begin the process of setting up the gas pot cookers and get the sauce and meatballs going. Pasta will be pre-cooked and warmed during event.

·         We need about 4 additional people to arrive at the school around 4 p.m. to help with set up.

·         The other volunteer jobs should be self-explanatory.

·         We don't want anyone to miss the show, so if we have to, we can do the cleanup and breakdown after the performances.

·         The sign up for 50/50 is a good job for someone that is good with talking to people - you will be selling the tickets and the more we sell, the more we make (and give to the winner!)

·         Students can earn volunteer hours at this event

We plan on feeding approximately 200 people this year. In the past two years, we have been able to make the Spaghetti Dinner 100% profitable by soliciting donations for the labor and food items needed to make it happen. We are fortunate enough that Kevin Green has volunteered to donate all the spaghetti sauce, noodles, meatballs, parmesan cheese & bread!  THANK YOU KEVIN GREEN!!!  There are still areas that we need donations.  Feel free to sign up for as many donations as you like! Don't forget, we need many volunteers, too - so check the other sign up genius list to put in some valued time!

Performing Student’s dinner starts at 5:00pm - cost for dinner is $8

Family & friends dinner starts at 6:00pm – cost for dinner is $12

Shows will start at 7:30pm - Door entry only for family & friends is $5

You can pay for the dinners at the door but please RSVP for the dinner below so we have an idea of how many people will be attending.  In addition, if you would please RSVP for your performing student it would help with our count.
