Hayfield Band Boosters (Message 5): Urgent Volunteer Needs

Greetings all,

 

The Booster organization runs on volunteer power.  There are a lot of needs to support an effective band program.  Lets all do our part to make this band year a great experience for our kids. Please consider stepping up to fill some of the many needs of the organization.  Without volunteers, some things simply won't get done.   

 

Needs for the week 

 

Uniforms.  Need willing hands to help with hemming the uniform pants, replacing buttons, etc.  If you have an hour or two to devote, sign up on Signup Genius & meet us in the uniform closet tonight at 5:30.

 

Hawk Flight.  Need a volunteer for Wednesday evening, 28 August and Thursday morning, August 30.  You will be positioned in the gym and your role will be to hand out Booster, Patron and Fruit Sale information.

 

Tag Day.  Tag Day is the primary fundraiser for the Band Boosters.  Need to identify a freshman or sophomore parent as soon as possible to shadow and observe Michelle Booth and Ellen Hishta as they prepare for Tag Day.  Michelle's daughter is a senior and we need to ensure we have a team next year to continue the great work she's done on this project.  Please send me a note if you are willing to work on this project. 

 

Reminder

 

Pot Luck Dinner.  The annual back-to-school pot luck dinner will be held on 29 August.  Dishes will be assigned by last name as follows: 

 

    A-E     Entrees

    F-M    Side Dishes

    N-Z     Desserts

 

Please ensure your name is on containers that must be returned.  Also, if possible, please bring the appropriate serving utensils for your dishes.  Dishes should be dropped off in the Middle School cafeteria at 5:45 p.m.  At 6:00 p.m., the students will present an exhibition in the parking lot at the back of the school.  Dinner will begin immediately following the exhibition.  We are still looking for a volunteer to assist with setup, and serving for the dinner.

Hayfield Band Boosters (Message 4): Pot Luck Dinner, 29 August

Greetings Boosters,

 

Thanks to those who attended the Band Parent Coffee on Thursday night.  We had great discussion about the band program and Band Booster activities for the year.  If you were unable to attend but have questions, please send them to me.

 

The Week of 26 August

 

Pot Luck Dinner.  The annual back-to-school pot luck dinner will be held on 29 August.  Dishes will be assigned by last name as follows: 

 

    A-E     Entrees

    F-M    Side Dishes

    N-Z     Desserts

 

Please ensure your name is on containers that must be returned.  Also, if possible, please bring the appropriate serving utensils for your dishes.  Dishes should be dropped off in the Middle School cafeteria at 5:45 p.m.  At 6:00 p.m., the students will present an exhibition in the parking lot at the back of the school.  Dinner will begin immediately following the exhibition.  We are still looking for volunteers to assist with setup, serving, and clean-up for the dinner.

 

Hawk Flight Information Station.  We will have a table at Hawk Flight on 27-28 August.  We will be accepting Booster and patron signups as well as distributing information about our upcoming fruit sale.  I am looking for a volunteer to man the table the morning of 28 August.

 

Marching Band Uniform Distribution   We will be assigning uniforms 26 - 28 August during evening rehearsals (5-8 p.m.).  I am looking for volunteers to help with fitting and repairing (primarily button replacement) uniforms.  Please go to Signup Genius and let me know where you can help. 

 

Shoes for Marching Band.  Several parents asked for information about Marching Band shoes at the Band Parent Coffee.  A shoe salesman will visit the school sometime during 26-29 August during evening rehearsal.  Students will be able to order the shoes during this time.  Payment must be made at the time of purchase.  If you would like to buy shoes, please send a check for $30 payable to Hayfield Band Boosters with your child on Monday, 26 August.

 

Signup Genius.  Signup Genius is now active.  There are many opportunities to help throughout the year.  We are requesting that each family commit to at least 5 opportunities so that we can spread the work.  Our Signup Genius site is at  http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D49AEAD23A02-hssband2

Signup Genius.  Signup Genius is now active.  You should have all received a message overnight inviting you to sign up for the many volunteer needs we have for the year. If you did not get the e-mail, go to our site http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D49AEAD23A02-hssband2 .  I encourage each family to begin by signing up for a minimum of 5 items.  If we all share the load, the band calendar is easily executable. 

 

Coming Next.  We're feverishly working on a selection of band spirit wear items (t-shirts, polo, sweatshirt, etc) for football season.  Order forms will be distributed soon and orders will be taken for a limited time.  Stay tuned!

 

E-mail.  If you know someone who should be getting our e-mails, please ask them to send me a note at Hawkbandbooster@aol.com
