Volunteer Sign-Up: 2025 Foothill Winter Show
Hi Music and Guard Program families!
One of the largest program fundraisers, the Winter Show, is coming up in less than 3 weeks (Saturday March 22) and we need your help. All proceeds benefit all music programs at Foothill.
Adult Volunteer SignUp – there is a separate signup for students.
The lead for your area will reach out before the event, or you’ll get directed to the right spot when you sign in at the volunteer check-in in the breezeway near the band/music room. Thank you for making our community amazing!
