The BAND DADS (aka The Logistics and Equipment Team) serves as the essential transportation and operational backbone of the Mt. Carmel High School Marching Band and Color Guard. This team manages the safe movement, setup, and maintenance of all instruments, custom props, and field equipment for every game, tournament, and showcase.
Key Responsibilities Include:
Transportation & Staging: Ensuring all field equipment, large instruments, and structural props arrive securely and are fully staged before the ensemble begins warm-ups or performances.
Field Logistics: Coordinating fast-paced, timed transitions to get students and equipment safely on and off the field during strict competitive performance windows.
Prop Construction & Maintenance: Building, painting, and repairing show-specific field props and sets designed by the Directors, as well as maintaining our equipment fleet and storage facilities.
Strategic Support: Operating with an organized, proactive mindset to completely handle equipment logistics. Our goal is to ensure the Director can focus entirely on the performance, while students feel confident that their gear is exactly where it needs to be.
