HSS Band 2010-11.8 Come Staple With Us: Tuesday during Band 6-8pm

Hi Band Boosters,

HELP NEEDED ~ It's time for our annual "Staple Party!"
To get envelopes ready for tag day, we need volunteers to come to the band room during band rehearsal Tuesday (Sept 7th) from 6pm-8pm. BYOS (Bring your own stapler); parents, siblings, friends are all welcome to help; this can be used for service hours for students. (There may be cookies . . . . !)
By the way, last year we received thousands of dollars in donations that came in from these "Sorry We Missed You" envelopes that are assembled at the Staple Party ... your help with this really benefits the entire band program.

We also need volunteers to help count money on Saturday afternoon, anytime between 1:30 and 3:30pm. Please let me know if you can help.

Drivers needed for Wednesday, September 8 after school.
The marching band students will perform at Island Creek Elementary to encourage band participation by the elementary-school students. We need parents to help drive students and instruments to the school. We'll meet by the band classroom door no later than 2pm. Students are dismissed at 2:05pm; we'll try to depart for Island Creek by 2:20pm. Please let me know if you can help ... and how many students/instruments you can fit.

If you haven't checked out our online volunteer sign-up, I invite you to look it over and give me your feedback. If you'd like to volunteer, but prefer not to use the online system, just send me an email to let me know what you'd like to do.

I hope everyone gets to enjoy this beautiful holiday weekend! I always have a tough time saying "good-bye" to summer; but it's fun to look forward to all the exciting things we have coming up this fall.

Please let me know if you have any ideas or questions about band.

Thanks for supporting the band students,
Lorraine
