Good evening band families,
We have had an amazing first week of our online campaign! Because of your help with getting this campaign out to others, and the work of our students, we have raised almost $30,000 in less than 1 week! We have been able to purchase new field mics, solo mics, a sound board, and a new sound cart. We would still love to hit our goal of $50,000, which would help us fund our transportation for the year, and purchase other new musical equipment that is desperately needed. Please continue to share our campaign with your family, friends, neighbors, co workers, and your social media accounts. Every bit counts! Online Fundraising Campaign
This week we have our first football game. The game is on Thursday at North Stadium. We are still in need of chaperones and help with the Hawk Haulers. If you would like to help, sign up here:
If you sign up to chaperone, please be sure to go through the school’s Raptor Check. You need to go to the front office of the school and give them you driver’s license, it takes all of a couple minutes. If you have questions about helping with either of these, please email me, I would be happy to answer any questions.
We are also needing more snacks and water for football games and competitions. If you are able to donate water or individually wrapped snacks (gold fish, cheese its, granola bars, fruit snacks, etc…) please drop it off in the band room before or after Monday night rehearsals.
If you purchased a senior banner, please find us at the stadium and hang their banner on the fence to celebrate our seniors! Please make sure that either you grab their banner after the game, or you arrange for another parent to grab it. Also, the photographer still has all the images from the photo shoot and has made those available for purchase, if you are interested follow this link: Senior Banner Photos
If you would like to order a button with your students picture in their uniform, please fill out this form AND make the $10 payment by Tuesday night. We will be taking photos on Thursday (make sure you let your student know they need to get their photo taken if you ordered buttons, we will have the list, but we want to make sure everyone gets their picture taken).
If you haven’t ordered your swag bag for this year’s show (cowboy hat, badge, bandana) place your order here (please ensure payment is made ASAP):
