CPMC Fall Chaperones:
Games, Competitions, and Events
Chaperones: Please sign up for chaperoning our band and guard for away football games, home football games and for band competitions and other events.
Band and Guard chaperoning is a unique and wonderful way to positively impact and support a very hard-working, talented and dedicated group of performers.
Chaperones might also assist with the timed movement of instruments, equipment and props on and off the field and back to the trucks.
Chaperones supervise uniform management pre and post event; communicate performer injuries and/or illness to the Band Director(s); accompany kids to and from their field or event destination or to rest-rooms and generally ensure the safety, health and welfare of our Red Raider performers.
We recommend encouraging your fellow band parents , awaiting picking up their band and guard performers at the end of an event, to hop out of their cars to lend a hand.
Home Games: Home game chaperoning requirements include pre and post-game uniform management, sitting in the stands with the performers; possibly participating in the timed movement of equipment, instruments and props on and off the field for the performance. Chaperones may be tasked with guarding the instruments in the stands while the band is on their break. Chaperones may be called upon to accompany groups of performers to the rest-rooms. Chaperones will also supervise post-game clean up of stands and accompanying the band and guard back to the band room for instrument and uniform management and dismissal of students once ALL tasks are complete.
Away Games & Competitions: Away games & Competition chaperoning requirements include pre and post-game uniform management, bag checking (making sure they have their gloves, all parts of their uniform, their chickens & their dinkles), supervision of bus-loading, distribution of snacks and cases of water, taking attendance and ensuring presence of all participants; sitting in the stands with the performers, may include participating in the timed movement of equipment, instruments and props on and off the field for the performance. Chaperones will be tasked with guarding the instruments in the stands while the band is on their break. Chaperones may be called upon to accompany groups of performers to the rest-rooms. Chaperones will also supervise post-game clean up of stands and accompanying the band and guard back to the bus, manage bus loading, take attendance, manage water and snack distribution and clean up, manage off-loading and bus clean up and supervise instrument and uniform management and dismissal of students once ALL tasks are complete.
Departure time from the High school is dependent on distance & travel time, which is also dependent of their performance time for competitions. Departure time and a recommended time for the chaperones to arrive at the high school will be obtained from the Band Director and communicated by the Board Secretary via Facebook and/or email. You will also receive a text from one of the Chaperone Team leaders.
Competitions: Competitions are generally on Saturdays with the exception of two competitions in November which may have us scheduled on either Saturday or Sunday of those weekends. To be communicated as more information is received. Chaperones are generally asked to arrive at the school about an hour before departure (times will be communicated).
All Competition times have not yet been established but will be communicated along with chaperone details relevant to each event.
MOST IMPORTANTLY: all bathroom breaks, individual escorting of children, or any reason to leave the group MUST come from/be approved by/communicated with the Band Director(s) prior to leaving the group. The Band Director(s) must know where their students are at all times.
