Volunteer With the Senior Committee

The PTSA senior committee cannot pull off three events for about 700 seniors on its own. It needs parents.

Every job here is specific. You will not be asked to show up and figure it out. No vague "come help out." Just clear jobs you can say yes to.

August Events - Volunteers Needed

Still open as of August 7: 8 volunteer spots across the Senior Social and the Parade. The photographer roles have had no takers at all - three separate slots, none filled - and Clean Up and Parade Helper are both still empty.

Senior Social

Friday, August 21, 11:00am-1:00pm, AFHS Cafeteria

Role	Time	Still Needed	What You Will Do
Food Pick Up	9:00-10:30am	✓ Filled	Pick up food for the Social and bring it to AFHS
Senior Social Setup	9:15-10:50am	2 more	Decorate and set up for the Senior Social
Food Set Up and Serve	10:45am-1:15pm	1 more	Serve food and drinks to about 700 seniors in the cafeteria
T-Shirt & Sign Distributors	10:45am-1:15pm	2 more	Hand out class t-shirts (all seniors) and yard signs (ordered only), checking names off a list
Photographer	10:45am-1:15pm	1 - nobody yet	Take photos of the Social for the class and the committee's social media
Clean Up	12:30-2:00pm	2 - nobody yet	Help clean up the cafeteria after the Social

A couple of these are worth calling out:

Senior Social Setup is decorating. If you have a flair for making a space look great, this is your job. Come ready to turn the cafeteria into a celebration.
Photographers, please. Three slots across the Social and the Parade have zero sign-ups. You do not need professional gear - a phone and a willingness to move around is enough. Without someone, these mornings go undocumented. (Chalk Decorating is already covered - Roxane Warren of Photography Eh is shooting that one.)
Food Pick Up depends on the food donors. The pickup spot and time are set once it is known who is providing the food, so those details come in your confirmation closer to the date.

Not ready to pick a specific event? Email the PTSA senior committee at [email protected] and say you would like to help - the committee will reach out when something fits.

What to Expect

You will get a confirmation with your role, time, and any instructions before the event
Show up at your time. Someone will tell you where to go.
Most jobs are an hour or two. You do not need to be there all day.
These events depend on parent volunteers, and even one or two hours makes a real difference.
