Dear Band Boosters,
This Saturday, September 12 is our first Tag Day of the year ~ it's our biggest fundraiser of the school year.
Here's the game plan from Mr. Burke and Mrs. Fitzsimmons:
The groups have been posted in the band room on the bulletin board in the front of the room all this week. Students should know their group and driver.
Drivers will be contacted by phone before Saturday to confirm assignments and cell-phone numbers.
Students and drivers should arrive at the band room on Saturday morning no later than 8am. The students will change into their uniforms and pick up their packets.
Plan on arriving in your assigned neighborhood by 9am. (Don't knock on any doors before 9am; but do try to start as soon after 9:01am as possible.)
You can bring snacks and drinks with you; you may stop for a lunch break, but we encourage those breaks to be as brief as possible. (Fast food; not a sit-down restaurant!)
Return to the band room between 2pm and 3pm to turn in money and uniforms.
Then, give yourselves a pat on the back for a job well done; and get ready for next Saturday when we do it all again!
If you have any questions, contact Erin Fitzsimmons
Thanks in advance for all your work.
Big thanks to all the volunteers who helped on Tuesday evening with envelope preparation. There were enough helping hands that we were able to prepare 4,200 envelopes in about two hours.
AND, many thanks to the parents who drove students and instruments to Island Creek on Wednesday. In addition to the parents who had signed up, several more parents pitched in at the last minute too ~ and,we needed that extra help! Thank you, thank you!
I'm putting some pictures from those two events on the blog: http://www.hayfieldbandboosters.blogspot.com/
See you on Saturday!
Humbly serving our kids,
Lorraine Monaco
