The backbone of our organization

The Katy Band relies heavily on its volunteers for everything from football games and competitions to fundraisers. It is truly the backbone of our organization and allows our students the best experience possible. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact our volunteer coordinator or keep your eyes out for volunteer sign-ups, especially leading up to big trips and events.
