Dear Band Boosters:
SPIRIT WEAR
Band Spirit Wear will be available for
purchase at Show and Tell Tuesday night. We have a limited number of polo shirts, sweatshirts
and fleeces for sale at this time.
We will be placing an order for new polo
shirts in the near future.
We are asking folks to pre-order shirts, so we can ensure you
get the
size you want. In addition, you will get a 10% discount if you
pre-pay at the time of order.
If there is enough interest, we may also
place an order for more
sweatshirts. Same rules apply.
Please note these shirts will not say "Booster" on
them - they are
BAND shirts that can be worn by parents and students alike.
Questions about Spirit Wear should be directed to Gaye DeCesare
at
decesare4@earthlink.net

Dear Band Boosters:
With Marching Season
already in full (practice) swing, the director, staff,
and students
are putting the pieces in place to have another successful
year of inspiring
performances at football games and competitions. Attached is the information
about next Tuesday's annual "Show and Tell
Night" when they perform
for family and friends. Please plan to join us on 26 August at the school to
see the progress and have dinner afterwards. Performance
starts at 6 PM, eating
time will follow the conclusion of the show (approx 6:30). Marching Band students
should be bringing a hard copy of the flyer, so check with them this evening
after practice.
This event also serves as the monthly booster meeting, as we will cover various
items of interest for booster parents: spirit wear sales, chaperone sign-ups,
link your Harris-Teeter and Safeway club member numbers to add funds to the booster
account (free money!), and a number of other informational and booster-assisting
issues. It's a basic membership meeting, so bring your questions, ideas, and
issues.
Another Booster Meeting note, the September meeting
will not be the usual first Thursday as 4 SEP is the annual "Back to School Night" for
parents to meet our students' teachers. While it is not yet confirmed, tentatively
plan
for 11 SEP (2d Thursday) as our Booster Meeting night. Confirmation will follow
soon.
As always, check the website www.woodbridgeband.org for more details on these
and all our events. Our next big Booster event is the Tag
Day donation drive
on Saturday, 6 SEP 08. We will need an armada of drivers and volunteer helpers
that day to take students through the neighborhood to raise money in this very
important fundraiser. There is also food involved, and Carin Sands will be planning
that aspect of it so nobody goes hungry at this event. See you there!
Very respectfully,
Tom
Sands
Booster President

Thank you all for your support over the 2007-2008 marching and
concert seasons - we've accomplished a lot this year! In one
final act of the Booster year, we have our monthly Booster
meeting this Thursday, 5 June 2008 at 7 PM in the WSHS Teachers'
Lounge
on the 2d floor, just around the corner from the upstairs cafeteria.
The band room is being used for rehearsal for next year's Marching
Season.
For those who want to get one last word in on the '07-'08 experience, you have
this chance to review the year and give us your thoughts. For those who want
information on the upcoming 2008-'09 events and opportunities, you'll want to
provide your input to influence what we do, where we go, and how we do our business.
Please plan to be there this Thursday.
Due to the Tues/Thurs rehearsal schedule that begins for "Rookies" under
the tutelage of the Section Leaders this week, Mr. Carder may only have a
few minutes to speak, and that time will provide good guidance for us to
plan the
next season. Hope to have you attend!
Very respectfully,
Tom
Sands
Booster President
