Marching Band Practice & Parent Meeting This Week!
THANK YOU PARENTS for volunteering at marching band camp this past week! It was great having the support of parents on the field, managing instructor lunches, picking up dinner and feeding the band, providing first aid, and making sure we had chilled towels on those hot days! You made this week successful and FUN! Be sure to check out the photos on the BAND app here:https://band.us/n/a0ae95SehfmbI

The Fundraising Committee needs your help with raising funds and finding meal sponsors for the season. We did a great job of securing sponsored meals for band camp, and now we need to secure meals for the marching season.
- This Google sheet contains a list of potential financial and meal sponsors. Please add your name next to the potential sponsors you plan to solicit. Add new sponsors if you know of a business that would be a good sponsor (e.g., your family dentist, pediatrician, favorite local restaurant, etc.). We would like to get a variety of different businesses to sponsor the band, and we want to make sure only one family is asking each business for sponsorship. Here is the link to the sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Z-V4oVv-EYthlefNwEUsbUVwbvY8ZEJbuGXXUUcHT5s/edit?usp=sharing
- Here is a link to the sponsorship packet which includes the levels of sponsorship. If you plan to ask by phone or email, you email potential sponsors this link with all the details: https://forms.gle/aaKyiPCucA2SevsE9 Please reach out to Margo Marks if you’d prefer a paper form. margomarks@gmail.com If you confirm a meal sponsor, please reach out to Margo Marks to confirm the date we need the meal.
