Lots of stuff!

1. Chinese Auction for Home Show:  at Thursday nights rehearsal, student received a letter stating that each student must bring in $3 for the Chinese Auction that we will have at our Home Show on September 17.  Students can give the $3 to Olivia Zugai or Marissa Torbert.
   

    2.   Cookie breakdown:  during each football game and at our Home Show, students are asked to bring in cookies to be sold at our concession stand.  Students are to bring in 2 dozen cookies.  Here is the breakdown so we are sure each game we have cookies.

    3.   FREE YOUR CALENDAR FOR SATURDAY, OCTOBER 8TH:  this will be our Spaghetti Dinner to raise money for our Hershey Trip.  More info and ticket info will be coming out shortly, but EVERYONE needs to plan on attending this event.  The more tickets we sell for this event, the better off we will be to raise enough money to go to Hershey without it costing families money.

    4.   Concession stand helpers:  if you are interested in working in the concession stand during football games, please let Rob Johnson know.  His email is rcjcad@aol.com.  We need lots of volunteers for each home game.
