It's time for the End-of-Band-Camp Picnic - yay! We really want every parent-type that can possibly be here to come Friday August 23, and we'll begin at 6pm.
The Boosters will provide the burgers, hotdogs, drinks, dessert, and plates/utensils.
We need some Booster dads and/or moms to help with the grilling. We have 1
large grill, but we could use one more, plus some burger flippers. Can YOU help? If so, send an email to McKee!
And it's very helpful for each family to pitch in with some food.
Last names A-J Salads, K-T Fruits/Veggies, and U-Z Chips.
After we eat, we'll have a short meeting to discuss our plans for the coming year and to share how everyone can help THS band kids have a great musical experience. Bring your appetite and your questions.
Yay!
Hey, remember all those hours some of you worked doing either security monitoring or soccer concessions during this summer's Balloon Fest? Well, Petie and Kip the Banker Cats have totaled and posted all those hours on the sidebar for you to see. YAY!
Now remember, each hour worked is worth $5.00 to your Band Account. So check out the chart and see how much YOUR account gained by working at the Balloon Festival, and get ready to fill out a transfer sheet if you want some/all of that $$ to pay for your fees.
Yay Band!

- Tables! We need many MANY tables on which sale items will be displayed. 4' tables, 5' tables, 6' tables - all are helpful. Dropped off Thursday evening and picked up Saturday late afternoon.
