The success of The Vibe Performance Company is dependent upon the ongoing support of our dancer’s families. Each family is required to contribute 12 volunteer hours to the VPC (20 hours for families with more than one dancer) each season.

The Vibe Volunteer Information Questionnaire Form link is below.   This form asks a series of questions to provide the opportunity for you to identify your skills and interests to pair you with the right volunteer positions. 

Please Click Here to start the questionnaire (your response is due Monday, August 31 end of day). It has several sections:

• Basic info about you and/or your husband (if he is able to volunteer)
• Skills and Interests
• A list of the open key roles in the Vibe, with several options for each
• Ranking: You will then be asked to rank the Top 3 positions from your selections from most interested to least interest.  If you are also including information for your spouse, please indicate that in the ranking list as well. Only select the volunteer positions or committees that you are truly interested in and have the flexibility to participate in.  

Note that if you hit the back arrow to return to a previous page, you will lose all data and need the form to start over. There is a Questions and Comments section on the last page to add any info you might have left off earlier in the form or would like to share with us.

Once we have the responses from the Volunteer Information Form, the Board will review the responses and placements will be compiled.  

Thanks for your attention to getting this form filled out by Monday, August 31st end of day and for all you do to make us VIBE STRONG!  

A few notes:

• A separate Signup Genius for the “day of” Showcase volunteer positions will be sent out at a later date once plans for Showcase are finalized. Showcase is an “all hands on deck” event and volunteer participation from ALL dancer families is expected.  You will note that all of these Showcase volunteer roles are not listed in this Volunteer Information Questionnaire form.    
• With the growing number of senior dancers each year, senior moms are not exempt from volunteering as we continue to need all the support and dedication throughout your dancer’s last year with us!
• Those that do not respond to volunteer questionaire will be placed on committee with current openings.
• Volunteers will track their hours via a link on the Vibe website (under Members Only section). Click here to access the Volunteer Hours Tracking Form which can be updated throughout the season.

Thank you to all members who filled out the initial conflict form. Moving forward that form has been turned off and you should use this link to access the conflict update form. Conflict Updates

Submission of your conflict dates/times does not guarantee that the Vibe will not have an event scheduled on that date, but it is helpful for the staff to know ahead of time. We want to emphasize the importance of your commitment to the Vibe and the responsibility that comes along with it. Each time a dancer misses a required dance activity, it impacts the entire group.
