Now Hiring for Dewey’s

Every year, the West Forsyth Band Fans open a Dewey’s store that sells holiday cookies and other Dewey’s products. These sales fund a significant portion of our band program. This wouldn’t be possible without the help of our wonderful students and volunteers.

This year, we are hiring two part-time positions to cover most daytime shifts. Please review the details below. Volunteer time slots will open at a later date on this page.

Thank you in advance for helping us make this a success!

 FAQs

  • Yes! A member of the team will show you how to navigate the register. There is also a training video you must watch before arriving for your first shift.

  • Minors between the ages of 14 and 15 can only work 3 hour shifts on school days and 8 hour shifts on the weekends.

  • While shifts can vary, we typically follow this schedule:

    11am-2pm

    2pm-5pm

    5pm-8pm

  • Card is preferred although we do accept cash. However, we do not give change so exact change is necessary or the difference can be given as a donation.

  • This store along with other fundraising efforts have a HUGE impact and make our programs successful. The bands receive around $1k/year from the school district. The other $40-50k needed to run a band program like ours, is raised by the Band Fans and generous community sponsors.

  • The funds are used to pay for music, instrument repairs, clinicians (instructors), color and winter guard, and to fund our marching band, including music and drill. The Band Fans and all fundraising efforts support ALL bands at WFHS!
