FRUIT SALE ENDS - turn in all orders Monday, October 16

All band members have been asked to participate in our annual Fruit Sale, an important fundraiser for ensuring future success for the band.

  • If you have sold any boxes of fruit, please turn in orders TOMORROW!

  • If you have not sold fruit, you may pay the average profit amount, which would be $100.

VOLUNTEER NEEDS

There are still some very important volunteer needs:

  • Concessions, for both this Thursday's (varsity) game and next Thursday's (JV) games

  • Football game chaperones and prop helpers for this Thursday's game

Willing to help but no time?

We also need food donations for the meals we feed everyone at the contests. Boosters usually cover the main food, but we need parents to help with the rest. See the list on the signups page - many items added for the two meals this Saturday!

Visit our SignUp.com page to choose your spot.

REMINDER: Each student is asked to contribute an individual contribution in the amount of $300.

This is part of the cost of participating in band and needed to cover expenses. We gave you the option of bringing in sponsors or splitting the payments over the months of August and September with the final payment requested by October 1.

PLEASE FINISH ALL PAYMENTS THIS WEEK SO WE WILL HAVE THE MONEY NEEDED FOR COMPETITION EXPENSES!

If you have unpaid band expenses, please get payments to the Boosters asap or talk to Mr. Pace if you need assistance.

PLEASE JOIN THE REMIND GROUP for band students (and band parents)
