Just as the PHDA Executive Board is formed by volunteer parents, teachers, and Highland Dance enthusiasts, competitions require volunteers to ensure we can provide a well-run day for our dancers. Each family is asked to volunteer 3 hours per season (this can be a teenage sibling, parent, grandparent, etc.). Please note that the volunteer request is waived for adult dancers who are competing. You will still be able to watch your dancer compete and job training will be provided if needed. Also, volunteers are exempt from the $5.00 admission fee on the day they volunteer.
