Hello Marching Band Parents!
As
Mrs. Matzke stated in the previous email, there is a lot of information
being given at once. Please read to the bottom of each communication
so that nothing falls through the cracks!DCMI MARCHING FESTIVAL VOLUNTEER AND DONATION SIGNUP
Thank you all who helped with food at the Legacy Marching Festival!! We will need help again with food for the Douglas County Marching Invitational (DCMI) on Oct 14th. We need people to prep food a couple days ahead of time, people to donate dessert, and we are in need of 10 people to come help prepare, serve, and clean-up at the invitational. Please signup following the link below. NOTE: If you are preparing food ahead of time PLEASE leave your cell number in the comments. This helps Renee with planning logistics in getting the food to and from you.
REGIONALS!!!
ATTENTION!!!!!!
WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! SIGN UP FOR REGIONALS TODAY!!! A
couple of times every year we really need for ALL the parents to come
together and help the marching band. One of those times is band camp
week, the other is Regionals. We
really need every parent to try to help in some capacity if they
possibly can. This is a coveted and huge fundraiser for us. It is a
very big deal and we would like to have all our volunteer slots filled.
If we have open slots the integrity of the competition is then
compromised/ as is our credibility to do it again, so please look at
your calendar and both tabs of the signup sheet and try to figure a
time/ donation that would work best for you. This fundraiser does not
just benefit the marching band, but all of our bands. We need these
large fundraisers to offset some of the costs that it takes to run such a
large and successful band program.
Every
year we do concessions for some of the Air Force Academy Basketball and
Hockey games to raise money for the general band fund. This has been a
great way to earn for some extra things for the band while keeping our
parent costs low. It usually is a
fun time and we get to work with some of our students. Please consider
volunteering for one of these concession events this year. Our first
date is Friday Oct 13th. It is a Hockey Game against Arizona State.
Call time is at 5 PM and it will run until
somewhere between 9-10 PM. The students (must be 16) can volunteer on
the signup on the band room door. Attached is this email is the food
handler training. It's a great way for students to earn volunteer hours
for band lettering or other volunteer commitments. This must be done
and brought with you upon arrival
for both student and parent volunteers.
To be a parent volunteer, please click the link below
Next AFA Concession date: Tuesday Nov 21 5 PM- approx 9:30PM
We have attached the Food Handler Training Document to this email for your convenience.
FUNDRAISING HIGHLIGHTS:
Cup and Believe catalog fundraiser has started, ask your student if haven't seen the packet yet! Great holiday gift ideas!
Just
a reminder that this fundraiser will be not be finished in time to be
applied to BOA. If you have not received this information, please ask
your student!

REGIONALS
Hello everyone,
Below is the long awaited link for Regionals. Please notice there are TWO tabs. One for Volunteers and one for Donations.
For those of you new to this, hosting the Southern Regional Competition is one of our biggest fundraisers. It is one we hope to do a good job at so they ask us to do it again. We are asking that you please, please consider contributing in someway to this day as it is a huge operation. This is a day where many of our parents take off all or part of the day to help. I promise it is a lot of fun, that you get to see just how these complex competitions are run, and a wonderful way to show the Southern Colorado band world how well we work together as a Liberty Band organization.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. We can't thank you enough for your help with this. We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday Oct18th!
