Uniform collection for all non-travelling band members will be Tuesday, Nov. 10 from 7:30 to 8:40 in the Multi-Purpose room. Students will need to turn in all parts of the uniform except for t-shirts, polos, gloves and berets. This collection is only for students who are NOT travelling to Spain, collection for those who are travelling will take place in early April. Parents who would like to volunteer to help can contact Molly Markey at momarkey@wowway.com or Judy Malone at katzmalone@aol.com.
Also, a quick reminder: the Shaker Hts. Band Fruit Sale ends this
Tuesday, Nov. 10th. This year's fresh-from-the-grove Florida oranges and
grapefruit are especially sweet and juicy and are healthy snacks. The
fruit is picked, boxed and trucked directly to us. No fruit is picked
and stored in a warehouse to be delivered to the grocery store.
All ordering is completed online. Go to www.shakerbands.org and
locate "Fundraiser Information" in the right-hand column and follow
the prompts. You will also find answers to frequently-asked-questions
there.
If your student has never ordered, an account number needs to be
set up. Just e-mail the student's name, parent(s) name and e-mail
address, and I will e-mail the account number back once it gets set-up in
the system.
You will be e-mailed with the delivery date which will be around the
first two weeks in December. The fruit delivery and pick-up is at
the Shaker Middle School.
All profits from the band student's individual sales go directly to
their personal trip fund account, which is set up and managed by the
District. This money is applied when the student goes on the International
Trip. Profit margins on fruit sales range from 30 - 43% depending on the
items sold. If the student doesn't go on the trip, the fund may be
transferred to a younger sibling in band or transferred to the General Band
Trip Fund.
Note: Malley's Candy Sale continues until December 14th.
Happy Selling,
