Volunteer
It takes the support of volunteers to organize and run PHDA competitions and fundraisers for our dancers. PHDA is an entirely member-run organization - without volunteers, we can't exist!
We require 8 members to fill our Board annually and approximately 20 other members to volunteer in some capacity at each of our 3 dance competitions each season.
We ask that every PHDA member volunteer at (at least) 1 competition per season. Each competition volunteer position has at least 2 members assigned, which allows parents to watch their dancers on stage and assist with costume changes as needed.
Sign up to volunteer when you register for a competition or contact sara.albert@gmail.com.
