Event Sign Up Sheet | Track It Forward

Branch Classic Volunteers

Saturday, October 18 2025

The Branch Classic is our single largest day of fundraising, as we welcome bands from around the state to compete at FBHS. This event reduces annual marching dues by about $200 per student! To pull this off, it takes 8 hours of participation from EVERY band family! Please select a shift to serve during the event, and review other signups for equipment and hospitality donations. (This is our Parent and Friends signup. Students are assigned separately. Parent leads are also not included in this signup.)

If you’re not able to work the event day, contact us! There are tasks before and after the event, such as returning rental equipment, placing signs, decorating hospitality rooms, etc.
