Spotlight on Claflin Hill Volunteers--

For us all, time is one of the most valuable assets that we have to offer others. Do you have time to give?

As a CHSO volunteer, you will have the opportunity to work and learn in a variety of different behind-the-scenes environments, but also the chance to meet other people who share your love of symphonic music and the desire to make a difference by giving your time to the Claflin Hill Symphony Orchestra.

From planning, implementing and executing a CHSO special event, to meaningful responsibilities as a house staff member at a concert, our valued volunteers are vital to achieve and maintain the mission of the Claflin Hill Symphony Orchestra. The CHSO has many opportunities available to fit your individual interests for volunteering. We make every effort to match each person with tasks and needs that fit their interests.

If you are interested in volunteering for the CHSO, please email ssurapine@claflinhill.org or call the office at 508-478-5924 and let us know your interests. The tasks can be year-long or only for one event. Why not become an active part of the CHSO family?

Fundraising

We always need volunteers to help us raise money from individuals and businesses, planned giving opportunities, and gifts to the endowment fund.

General Office Support

We always need help with general office support such as updating our website, data entry, ticket distribution, printing, copying, mailing, sorting and filing music, and running errands.

Concert/Program Day Volunteer

We need ushers and runners at all of our concerts and presentations. Setting up the music stands, putting on the stand lights, setting up the “back office” are just a few of the tasks that need to be done on the day of a performance. Selling tickets, meeting, greeting, and seating our audience members are all key to making an event successful. Baking, icing down the drinks, making coffee, folding program inserts are part of the routine, too!

During intermission at all of our performances we sell gourmet baked goods. Do you like to bake? We could use your help!

Public Relations and Marketing

We need volunteers to help distribute posters and brochures throughout the MetroWest area.

Social Events

If you enjoy planning parties and events, the CHSO needs your assistance with its many functions—some of which are fundraising, such as the Annual Fall Fling, cocktail parties, and other social functions.

History and Archives

The CHSO has numerous news clippings and photographs that need to be organized and cataloged on a continuing basis.
