Concert Band Uniforms
The order form for the concert band uniforms is PAST DUE. Please return this as soon as possible. Returning students do not need to order a uniform unless they have lost their old one, need larger sizes, etc. The money is due December 12th.
Gift Wrap Table
The gift wrap table will be December 19-21 at the Super Walmart on Serene near Eastern. Students, parents, and siblings can all sign up to work, and the money earned will go toward the band student's account. 75% of all money earned will be divided into an hourly wage for everyone that works.
We will need gift wrap, gift boxes, scotch tape, and more. A flyer will be sent up dividing up what our needs are.
