Here are some of the job descriptions. Everyone will be trained on the task prior to working. We keep this very supported and communicate well with each other to put out fires and continue the keep the contest running smoothly.
Ticket Sales/Spectator Entrance
As the first person to make contact with spectators, this role is particularly important. This position must be manned by 2 adults at all times. These adult volunteers will be your first ambassador to your show. Responsibilities include handling money, keeping track of the number of wristbands given to each spectator, as the school will be financially responsible to TCGC for each wristband.
Performance Gym Door Monitors
This station should be occupied by adults only and the responsibilities include checking to make sure that everyone who comes into the gym either has paid to get in and has a wristband on, or is a director of a group with a badge. If they do not they should be directed back to the spectator entrance to purchase a ticket. They will also be trained on the appropriate times to open and close the doors and to not allow people in or out of the gym during performances, as to not distract the performers during their performances.
Unit Check In
This area must be manned by 2 adult volunteers and at least 8 unit guides two hours prior to the start of the contest. Adults at the unit check-in table will be responsible for interacting with unit directors and accurately distributing wristbands to performers and floor crew.
Prop & Equipment Monitor
There should be two volunteers in prop storage to assist units in staging and preparing props and equipment for performance.
Warm-up Monitors
TCGC will provide staff members for warm-up rooms but volunteers are still needed to help man the rooms. There are two official TIMED warm-up rooms for guard – body and equipment. Digital clocks are placed in the warm up rooms at the beginning of the contest day. 30 minutes prior to the first unit’s report time, volunteers should be in-place to receive clock training.
