PARENTS, PLEASE READ - "BBQ with the Band" Ticket Sales Info
Although October 29th may seem far away, BBQ with the BAND will be here before we know it! We
want to make you aware of changes we are implementing this year in an effort to streamline the
ticket-selling process and maximize our fundraising dollars!
We request you:
- Begin working on your list of contacts NOW! These are your friends, neighbors, relatives, etc., who will receive letters from your Band student.
- Come to the Band Hall on Wednesday, August 11th, to pick up your student's BBQ packet containing instructions, forms, and letters. It is our strong preference to hand these packets directly to parents! We will be in the parking lot from 7:45 am - 8:15 am and again from 10:45 am - 11:15 am. We want every family to receive their packet on August 11th!
- Mail out your letters on Wednesday, August 18th. We ask that everyone mail their letters on that date! With hectic back-to-school schedules fast approaching, this not only benefits us, but our "customers" as well. Many of you have already received requests from Belles, Cheerleaders, and Choir members... now it's our turn!
We appreciate your willingness to try this new approach! Call with any questions or concerns!
