Please note: Student volunteers sign-up in the band room. The Poway Invitational Field Tournament (PIFT) is our largest fundraiser of the year. This year PIFT will host 26 bands from all over San Diego and Orange County and will include more than 2500 performers. We expect more than 2000 spectators to come to enjoy the performances. How To Volunteer Check out the volunteer job descriptions below and then click here to sign-up for a shift. Click the sign-up button for the job and time you'd like to volunteer.

We have 237 shifts that must be filled so please consider volunteering for more than one shift at one or multiple jobs. Your help is especially needed during the evening hours when we have the most visitors.
