Band Cards
Donations Due August 31 |
We are excited about the quality of merchants and the discounts offered on this year's card. Each student received an envelope containing 25 D-B Band Merchant Discount Cards. We would ask each Band and Guard member to collect a minimum $5.00 donation for each card. You can receive additional cards once you have turned in donations for your first set of 25. |
| |
Extra cards may be received on the practice field at the end of each Band Camp evening practice and Tuesday after school practices. Please contact Beth or George Proffitt (967.0402 or pro4@embarqmail.com) if you need additional cards at any other time.
Students who receive $5.00 or more for each of 25 or more cards will be invited to an ice cream celebration in September.
All donations and extra cards must be turned in by Tuesday, August 31, 2010

The extra hot weather through two weeks of band camp has us running low Gatorade. You are probably wondering why? It takes two (2) large Gatorade containers to fill one (1) 50 quart cooler. Our students consume at least two 50 quart coolers during each practice. Remember, there are over 300 of them. Our students need Gatorade or a similar product to remain hydrated during the extreme temperatures that show no sign of improving. You may drop off Gatorade anytime prior to, during or at the conclusion of Tuesday and Thursday after school practices. Your student will greatly appreciate your donation!
