The band program is in need of a new sound mixer and cart that will allow us to connect wirelessly. Our goal is to raise at least $10K between two fundraisers. We have set a goal for each student to help raise $150 each. Every student who secures at least $50 in donations will be included in our prize drawings throughout the day of the Rock-A-Thon.
1) 2nd Annual RHS Band Rock-A-Thon
Saturday, December 7th from 11:30am-11:30pm in the band room. All band and guard students are encouraged to attend. Bring your favorite rocking chair and settle in for a "rocking" marathon. Students will secure pledges for every hour they rock. e.g. a pledge of $2 an hour and 12 hours = $24 donation. We will have games, food and lots of fun. Plan to join for the day!
2) DOUBLE GOOD POPCORN sale December 4th-8th- This is an easy, online popcorn sale. You share the link with friends, neighbors and family. The band will receive 50% of all sales during the 4 day window. Popcorn ships direct to the buyer. All we need to do is promote it. More details with instructions will be shared next week.
DECK THE SQUARE - BAND TREE
The Roswell Band will host a tree for the annual Roswell Deck The Square Tree. The theme for the tree will follow our Marching Band Show "City Nights". We need a few creative people to help with decorations. If you would like to contribute, please email Lori Roselli @ lbroselli@yahoo.com. Decorations need to be ready by Wednesday, December 4th. We will be decorating the tree that afternoon. We would love to have band members come help decorate the tree!
