Hello Band Boosters,

It has been a while since I sent out a huge email so here are the current events of Band World.

First Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers for Solo and Ensemble.  The concessions stands did well making over $700 profit once we paid out all expenses. We should have afinal total at the meeting.

Thank you to all the people who participated in the Dining for $$$ Pizza Hut night we raised $72.30 with 18 tickets ( almost 20).  The next Pizza Hut night will be March 27th.  We are sticking with Tuesday since it is $10 pasta night… and many of you seemed to like that. Attached is the flyer for the next event.  Remember you must have a form for them to attach to the order.  It can be delivery but use the form so we get credit.

We received the check from Whataburger for Whataburger Wednesdays in the Fall totaling $498.  Thank you all again for participating with us.   We have discontinued this program for the time being.

Also Randalls Remarkable program continues to be one of our fundraisers so if you or your family shops at Randalls link your Remarkable card to our code 225744 and we get a check each quarter for 1% of the purchases you make. 

The Scrip Order form has been updated.  Please download the latest version from the website.  Baskin Robbins has been discontinued from the Scrip program and a couple cards that did not sell were replaced with cards that have been requested.  Removed were Baskin Robbins, Auto Zone and Radio Shack.  Added were Buffalo Wild Wings, P.F. Chang's China Bistro and Disney.  The Disney card can be used at The Disney Store in the San Marcos Outlet Mall, as well as any shops in Disney World, including food.  The next scrip order is due by the end of the booster meeting on February 27th.  You may place your order  Saturday or Sunday the  25th and 26th at Theresa Spong’s home , 320 Primrose Drive, in Meadowoods right by the high school.  Please call first 268-1452 to arrange a time. I will be available 1-5 and other times by appointment.  You can also place your order at the band booster meeting on the 27th.  Remember this is a great way to raise funds for you students travel accounts.  For more information on this great fundraiser please see the website under the ‘Scrip’ Tab.
