Football Game Concessions
Along with cleaning the football concession stands, we also need people to sign up to work concessions! These signups are now available. Don’t forget when you work in the concessions, whether it is car show, cleaning, or football games, you always earn money into your student’s trip account. So please consider helping out in this fundraising opportunity. View football concession signups and other information.
Football Concessions Cleaning
Football season is almost here, and to get ready we need to clean our concession stands! We need volunteers to help clean and we need two pressure washers (with hoses) for each cleaning date. Volunteers may bring buckets, gloves and sponges if they would like, but this is not a requirement. You must bring your own water to drink if you are coming to help!
- Home side football concession stand cleaning is Saturday, August 11 starting at 8 am and going until the side is clean. Sign up to help.
- Visitor side football concession stand cleaning is Saturday, August 18 starting at 8 am and going until the side is clean. Sign up to help.

Every year the band boosters provide meals during band camp. This year the boosters will be providing meals at 5 PM on the following dates:
- Monday, August 6
- Wednesday, August 8
- Wednesday, August 15
- Thursday, August 16
Help is needed to setup, serve the meal, and cleanup after the meal. We will also need donations of food. Please sign up to help in whatever capacity you can. Any donations of food or time is greatly appreciated! View signups here. If you have any questions contact the band booster VP at vp@carlislehighschoolband.org.
