Lady's Gourmet Popcorn Sales!

Our Lady's Gourmet Popcorn sale continues through fall break until 10/31.  Please turn your envelope with your order form and money in to Mr Blocker no later than 10/31.  These are a great fundraiser for the band and your student.  Remember, each tub sold earns them $2 into their student accounts!  8 tubs = ISSMA Solo Fee is paid!

Craft Fair

Our fall craft fair is huge this year.  I've been turning away crafters for almost 2 months now because we are overfull with 105 crafters!  This is a HUGE fundraiser for the band.  To share the profit, we pay each student and family member that helps out, $2 per hour into the student accounts.


Share the event with your friends and family on Facebook!  https://www.facebook.com/events/2036299039723299/
Can't help with a few volunteer hours?  We have a couple of donation options for the craft fair.

Baked goods!  We host a bake sale that does VERY well every year, based on donations by you!  Baked goods can be brought to the Middle School during Setup on 11/9 starting at 5pm. 

Soda - We also ask that each band family donate a case of soda to help defer the cost of concessions.  Below is the donation requested based on student's grade & last name.  These can be dropped off in the band room any day before 11/9 or on 11/9 during set-up.
