Hello Band Community,

(This is a note from your Music Booster President.)

Notes and Floats is on June 7 and so we need to get all contributions by Friday 6/2.  Mr. R has taken our kids to such extraordinary heights in their music development with exceptional success in the Great America competition.  This is the time to show how much we appreciate him.  Every year, I am just unbelievably amazed by him.

Steve needs time to go to the bank to deposit all checks and get the cashier's check.

Please put this gift in a sealed envelope with "Steven Waste" written on the outside.  You can deposit this in the music booster box in the classroom or our safe in the school office with Sue Odom.  Cash is preferred over check as we have a parent volunteer (Steven Waste) who is overseeing this and will getting this cashier check from these funds.  If you write a check, please make it payable to Steven Waste.

We usually get the question of what is the normal amount and on average it is $20-50 per family.

Unfortunately, this was the only way to communicate to all the bands.  If you have questions, please do not hesitate to email me at oktanm@gmail.com or Steve at wastrel@me.com.   

Thank you so much!

Mr. Rawlinson is sick today, so we are moving the meeting since it is the last one for the year to next Tuesday (5/30) at 6:30 pm in the Cafeteria.

Sorry for the last minute notice.  We found out he was sick yesterday.
