Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart. - Elizabeth Andrew
The Broomfield Band program would not be successful without the invaluable support of our volunteers. We have many year-long, seasonal, and event specific volunteer opportunities available for parents, relatives, or friends interested in helping out.
BVSD requires anyone looking to volunteer, in any capacity, to complete a volunteer application and background check. This must be completed prior to volunteering.
Year-long and Seasonal opportunities (2023-2024)
Many of these opportunities can be shared! If you're interested in filling a vacant position, please notify a BBPA board member, or send an email to bbpa.president@gmail.com with the position you’re interested in.
