FAMILY INVOLVEMENT FORM

As a parent/guardian, I understand that the CMS Musical needs the help and support of families in
order to make the show a success. Every family will be assigned committees and scheduled to provide
assistance at rehearsals and clean-up duties for shows. We ask that families plan to dedicate a
minimum 10 hours to support these activities. These hours will be spread out over the course of the
rehearsals and run from January through March.

Committees are broken into two groups, depending on when most of their volunteer hours are
needed. Please rank each group of committees below in preference order (1=I am most interested in
serving on this committee TO 7=I am least interested in serving on this committee). Please see the next
page for a brief description of each committee. We make every effort to assign you to 2 committees
that you prefer.
