Thank You Volunteers!

The California High School Entertainment Unit would not be possible without the dedication, time, and support of our incredible parent and family volunteers. From football games and competitions to Band Camp, uniforms, transportation, meals, props, concessions, fundraising, and hosted events, volunteers play a vital role in helping our program operate successfully throughout the season.

The countless hours volunteered by our families help create meaningful experiences and opportunities for our students both on and off the field. We are extremely grateful for every parent, guardian, family member, and supporter who gives their time, energy, and encouragement to help our students succeed.

As volunteers, we ask that everyone help us maintain a positive, respectful, safe, and supportive environment for students, staff, families, and guests at all times. The following guidelines are intended to help keep events organized and ensure the safety and success of everyone involved in the program.

Many volunteer opportunities are available throughout the year, and we encourage all families to get involved whenever possible and check BoosterHub regularly for volunteer sign-ups, event information, and announcements.

Chaperone Responsibilities

Chaperones play an important role in the supervision, safety, and support of students during events and travel days. Responsibilities may include:

• Assisting with student supervision throughout the event day

• Helping ensure students are fed and hydrated during designated meal times

• Verifying students are present before departure and after performances

• Monitoring student behavior during travel, meals, and performances

• Assisting students as needed throughout the event

• Working alongside booster volunteers and staff to help maintain organization and student safety

Volunteer Identification, Safety & Check-In

• Volunteers working directly with students during travel, competitions, or warm-up periods must be approved adult volunteers such as parents, guardians, or family members.

• Student helpers may assist in designated areas when appropriate; however, supervision of students must remain under adult volunteers and staff.

• Only confirmed volunteers assigned to the event should be present in designated student, bus, staging, or warm-up areas.

• All volunteers must check in and out with the designated Booster Lead or event coordinator.

• Volunteers should remain in their assigned areas unless directed otherwise by staff or booster leadership.

• Parents and spectators not assigned as volunteers should remain in designated audience/spectator areas.

Student Safety

• Volunteers should help ensure students remain supervised and accounted for throughout the event.

• Students should not wander away from designated group areas without permission or supervision.

• Volunteers may assist students in locating restrooms, meal areas, or assigned gathering locations when needed.

• Parents not assigned as volunteers should avoid removing students from supervised group areas without notifying staff or chaperones.

Bus Conduct

• Food, drinks, and snacks may be restricted on buses except for water unless otherwise approved by staff.

• Volunteers and student leaders may assist with ensuring buses remain clean and orderly during travel.

• Students are expected to remove trash and personal belongings before exiting buses.

• Volunteers should help verify that students unload all required instruments, uniforms, and equipment after travel.

• Chaperones and volunteers may be assigned throughout the bus to assist with supervision and safety during transportation.
