Fundraiser! 

We are working with Oakbrook Fundraising to raise money for our chorus account for the 2010-2011 school year.  Proceeds of the sale will go towards rewards and events for the students, and possibly guest artists and band/choral conductors.  This sale is not mandatory; please do not feel that you have to sell anything!  If your student brought home the information and you are not interested, have them bring it back to me.  If you are selling, the orders are due on September 15^th and I need one check made payable to “

.”  Use the attached order form that creates three copies of the order, instead of the back of the book.  If you sell 15 items you may choose a free item from the book or your student may choose a free T shirt.  If you sell 30 items, you can pick two food items or you students can pick two T shirts, or you can mix it up.  Let me know if you have any questions regarding the sale.

Seating Auditions: 

Woodwind and Brass seating auditions will not take place until later in the month, but percussion auditions will take place Friday, September 3^rd during activity period.  All students should have received their music folder with their audition music.  Percussion auditions will determine their placement in the drum line, as well as their concert band assignments.
