Do you have some spare time and an occasional desire to get out of the house? The Argyle Music Association is always up to something and you could get up to some of it too. We have several volunteer positions to fill each year.
Some of the parent volunteers with the amazing teachers who made Cabaret 2023 great
AMA President
The President of the Argyle Music Association has the responsibility to run the meetings, help set the agenda, sign cheques, help with the budget, pays bills and so on.
Secretary
Throughout the school year there are several AMA committee meetings that need to be documented. The secretary is responsible for taking notes and sharing them after each meeting.
Fund Raising Coordinator
We have several fund raisers throughout the year that allow students to raise money to go towards the fantastic music trips. The fund raising coordinator sets up each fund raiser through various web site (eg. Purdy’s chocolates) and manages the allocation of money raised for each student. As well, the coordinators organizes the volunteers who will help distribute the items on the pick up dates.
Treasurer
OK, this one actually is a big job. An accounting background will be helpful. A sense of humor seems to seems to be part of the practice. Click on the “treasurer” link to see a brilliantly detailed description. ( Thanks Dave! )
Cabaret Coordinator
Cabaret is the biggest fund raising event of the year for the Argyle Music Association. The Cabaret Coordinator will run several meetings throughout the school year to organize all of the jobs that need to be done.
Cabaret Volunteer Positions
There are many jobs available to help run Cabaret such as:
- volunteer coordinator (coordinates the volunteers that help during the event)
- silent auction
- food coordinator
- bar
- decorating committee
- sound and lighting
- program printer
Web Master
We need someone to maintain this very website. The site runs on WordPress so the actual website part is pretty straight forward. Each time the teachers send out an email communication, the Web Master can post it to this site. All the events for the music programs will be posted and updates will be made to the fund raising page as the deadlines are announced.
The web master also sets up the ticket sales site in EventBrite for Cabaret, manages the seating charts and works with the treasurer to get the final seating lists for the event.
