Welcome to the 2024-2025 swim season. The Waukee Northwest Athletic Booster Club asks you to help support the student athletes by staffing the concession stands during the swim events hosted at the Natatorium. We ALL need to work together to make this a success.
In 2024-25 all home events will have a NWHS Sports team assigned to it. This team is responsible for providing the volunteers for that event. Volunteers can be parents or players, or students seeking silver cord hours.
Students eligible for silver cord hours are welcome to work as long as there is at least one adult/parent working during their shift. No one under 14 is allowed in the concession stands.
The people assigned the last volunteer shift will be closing and should start the closing procedures ~15 minutes before the end of their shift. Do not close the concession stand completely until the meet has concluded.
If you are only working your volunteer shift you will not have to pay game admission fees. If you plan to attend the game before or after your volunteer shift you will need to use your activities pass or purchase a game ticket for attendance.
Please contact Justin Moen or Annie Pearson at volunteers@nwathleticboosterclub.org if you have questions.
On the first Thursday of each month, Waukee Preschool is looking for volunteers to babysit children while their parents attend the Preschool PTO meetings from 5:00-6:00pm. There will be a room with toys/games for students to enjoy during the hour of childcare.
