UT Seat Back Sales Details

Howdy! It's time for our biggest fundraiser of the year: UT Seat-back Sales! WE NEED YOUR HELP! We need a minimum of 40 cadets and 15 adult volunteers. Due to the contract with UT & DKR-Memorial Stadium, we MUST have 15 adults to supervise both the collection and counting of money and the conduct of cadets.

Hutto AF JROTC will be working at each University of Texas home football game for the 2019 season. JROTC will manage game day portable seat-back rentals for spectators. We will also staff several customer service booths around the stadium to assist season ticket holders who purchased permanently installed seat-backs. After enjoying the game FOR FREE, we gather and re-stack the seat-backs for the next game.

WHO CAN VOLUNTEER:

We are happy to welcome adult volunteers including parents, family, and friends. They will need to show photo ID when they arrive. Cadets are also welcome to bring along family and friends who are under 18 with these restrictions: guests must be 12 or older, must work with their cadet or adult host, and MUST abide by Hutto ISD conduct requirements.

SCHEDULE (Please check individual game Sign-Up for departure times!!!!):

  • Meet at JROTC building about 3.5 Hours before kickoff. Usually we will have a bus but occasionally will need to carpool. A limited number of parking passes are available, but if additional cars are needed we do qualify for the "Friends and Family" lot "East Campus Garage" on E. MLK BLV $15.

  • Leave the JROTC building 3 Hours before kickoff. We must arrive at DKR Memorial stadium and check in by 2 hours before kickoff.

  • You will be assigned to a work-station team for either seat-back sales

  • or Customer Service Booths. An adult supervisor is required at each sales station and Customer Service Booth.

  • We sell seat-backs until roughly 15 minutes after kick-off or until we sell out.

  • Cadets are free to watch the game after being released by their adult supervisor. Supervisors return cash envelopes to the sales office and count receipts. As soon as that is completed, supervisors may enjoy the game.

  • You may try to find an empty seat, but you must move if anyone claims the seat.
    Volunteers CANNOT enter any of the boxed seating, Lounges, or Clubs and should not enter employee only areas without vendor guides.
    Volunteers are NOT allowed ON THE FIELD at any time (before, during, and after the game).
    Volunteers are STRICTLY PROHIBITED from approaching Bevo.

  • Watch the time. At 5 Minutes left on the clock, you should be back at

  • your assigned sales location. Do not go to another sales location unless released by the adult working that location! Meet your team, then proceed to the top, back row of your assigned seating section.

  • Wait for the game to end and spectators to begin to leave.

  • As spectators leave, we will begin gathering the rental seat-backs. Starting at the top of a section, move all seat-backs to the end of row and stack them neatly. Moving from the top rows to bottom rows, gather seat-back stacks and move them to the bottom stadium entrance in the section. Once you have collected all the seats move them to your sales location and stack them NEATLY on pallets.

  • Once you have finished each section move to the next section and repeat.

  • If you are done with the sections assigned to your sales location, move on help the next team.

  • Once all the seats are gathered, stacked, and all sections have been double checked, we may need to re-distribute seats among the sales locations.

  • Volunteers will gather at the sales office, role will be called. The team will return to Hutto High School after role call. If you are not returning to Hutto High for any reason, you MUST let the Instructor Supervisor or Parent Booster Leader know BEFORE you leave.
