Volunteer Job Descriptions Check-In/Escorts The band escorts are responsible for guiding the bands from their arrival until their performance is complete. Band Gate and Equipment Gate inform the bands and their equipment crews when they may enter the stadium for their performance. Check-In greets the band directors and gives them their information packets. Escorts are assigned to a band upon arrival and guide them through warm-up, performance, and back to their buses. Warm-Up makes sure each band finds their warm-up area and provides assistance to the band escorts. Concessions Concessions will operate the food booths on the Home and Visitor's side of the stadium. Jobs include taking orders, making change, and serving food. The first shift of the day will help set up and the last shift of the day will help clean up.
