Hello Band Families!
The sign up for the Dewey’s store is now available! You may access it with the big orange volunteer button on the band website www.athensdriveband.com.
SIGN UP INSTRUCTIONS
When you sign up, you will be asked to
1- give your student’s name for credit to your family’s band account
2- indicate if the worker you’re signing up is a student or an adult
Please use this format: Will Wakeford/adult or Will Wakeford/student. This will make more sense when you see the sign up.
This information is only visible to the coordinator. Please ALSO enter it in the comment field. This will allow other parents to know if there is an adult already on the shift, so they may sign up their student. Remember, there must be an adult on every shift.
More detailed procedures for this fundraiser are still in development, but you can expect them to be similar to other shift fundraisers with regard to a dress code, parking guidelines, late cancellation penalty, etc. This information will be available around mid-October, but we wanted to go ahead and give you an opportunity to sign up for shifts now.
TRAINING INFORMATION
Training for this fundraiser will be in three parts.
STEP 1: Dewey’s Volunteer Info Session Notes
The presentation from the 9-9 rehearsal day has been posted on the Dewey’s page of the band website www.athensdriveband.com/fundraisers/deweys. Click on the link at the bottom of the page to view it. This presentation provides a complete overview of the fundraiser store. The Power Point has been converted to a PDF with updated notes to expand on the slides.
STEP 2: Handbook and Training Video
You will receive instructions for viewing a store handbook and training video once these resources are available.
STEP 3: On-site Training
Dewey’s staff will train our committee members on site at the store once it has been set up. We will in turn set up an on-site training session for you. There will be several dates to choose from around the end of October. If you intend to work a shift at any point in the season, please plan to attend one of these sessions.
Opening day will be here before you know it! We look forward to working with you on this exciting new fundraiser! Questions? Please email us at deweys@athensdriveband.com
