As a fundraiser, the band will start selling food after school on Tues and Thurs, starting Oct 1 (sandwich + water + chips + fruit snack for $3.00). We need parents to help, from 2:00 pm until the food is sold (but no later than 4:00 pm). A portion of the profit will be credited to your student's account, to help pay for dues, spring trip, etc. Any parent interested in volunteering should contact Crystal Ramirez at Texastime777@att.net.
