Regionals VOLUNTEERS and DONATIONS
HERE YE, HERE YE

Tis time for all hands on deck as we prepare for another great year as hosts for the CBA Southern Regionals.  If you are available that day to help, please use the VOLUNTEER link below to sign up.  For those unable to make any time commitments there are many donations needed as well, please see the DONATIONS link to signup below.

Date: 10/19/2016 (Wed.)
Time: 5:30am - 10:00pm MDT
Location: D20 Stadium
Liberty High School
8720 Scarborough Dr
Colorado Springs, CO 80920

There are LOTS of positions so read through carefully before signing up. If you are available for the whole day sign-up for two slots. Don't worry if they overlap a little. If you need to vary your time slightly or are in PIT CREW leave me a message in your comments field. Volunteers will be given a hot dog, chips, snacks & drinks. Arrive a few minutes before your shift to check-in with the volunteer coordinators (visitor locker room). You can bring extra food/drink and layers of clothing and leave in that area. Depending on your position, you may want to bring a camp chair. Liberty Band Spirit Wear is encouraged. There will be training for volunteers on Monday 10/17 at 6:30 pm in the Band room. All Liberty folks are reminded to park across the street at St. Gabriel's church the day of the event.

DONATIONS are one of the many ways to be involved and support Regionals. Items can be found in grocery or warehouse stores and would need to be dropped off on Monday evening at 6:00 pm in the band room (or make other arrangements with me). If you'd like to help (but donating cash & having us do the shopping would be easier) place a monetary donation in the red mailbox in an envelope titled Regionals Donation before the 10/17 training meeting. Any questions should be sent to penny_bullard@hotmail.com.

It's Marching Band Competition time. 

Legacy MB Dinner 9.24.16

Join us in feeding the marching band at the Legacy competition this Saturday on 9.24.16. You'd be amazed at what we can do with a generator, and some turkey fryers and roasters! In one afternoon, we'll prepare a hot meal to serve to 190 people. We need some parents to take food home for initial preparation, some parents to donate desserts, and a very special crew to actually put everything together Saturday afternoon at the festival and serve dinner. After clean-up, you'll have plenty of time to head into the stadium and enjoy the finals performances.

Use the below link to sign to help donate food or to help on the food crew.

ENTERTAINMENT BOOKS - FINAL CALL!

Please have your student turn in their payments for outstanding Entertainment Books in the Red Mailbox and/or return any unused books back to Ms. Matzke in the band room.  We currently have 26 students with over 70 books out who have not submitted payments.  Our vendor is anxious to pick up any unused books, so please turn your unused books in soon before he picks them up.  After that, they are your books and we will be looking to you for payment.

Thanks!

Entertainment Book Fundraiser Update - 24 Aug 16

Band Parents,

Thank you all for the outstanding support for this year's Entertainment Book Fundraiser!  We have about a week to go to complete sales and start gathering payments.  As a reminder, each book costs $30.  All profit from each book ($12 per book) goes into your student's account.  The remainder goes to pay our vendor costs for the book.  The band makes no money off of this fundraiser.  Please plan on finishing up sales by the 31st of August and getting all your payments into the Red Mailbox by the end of next week.  If you need a couple of extra days to finish sales that's fine.  We just want to start closing this fundraiser before we get into Sept.   Thanks again for your support...we've had over 370 books checked out this year, which is about a 100 more than last year.

We are also in need of a few more volunteers to help with Music and Arts rental contracts at a few area schools.   Liberty Band will be reimbursed $50 for each person per shift so it is  a great way to help earn money for the band program.
