Sales are now
closed for the Indian River fruit sale, which had its best year yet in dollars
raised! Students who participated in that
fundraiser will be notified in the next few weeks of the pickup date
for their fruit orders.
Students can
continue to raise funds through the Malley's fundraiser
until December 14. To get started, go to http://www.shakerbands.org/home/bandtripfundraiser.html and follow the prompts to
register. You will also
find answers to frequently asked questions there. All sales are conducted online and orders are shipped
directly to customers, all you need to do is email them the link once you are
registered!
The fundraiser provides Band
Students the opportunity to raise money to help pay for their International Band
Trip, which usually occurs every three years. Funds raised go directly into an
individual account for each student who participates. The next trip is scheduled for the Spring of 2016 (location TBA).The cost for previous trips has been
around $3,000. Students in grades 7 through 11 are encouraged to participate in
this fundraiser. Even though 7th graders will not be included in the
2016 Band Trip, they can begin to raise money for the trip the band is scheduled to take in
their Junior year.
