Parent Help Needed

There are a couple of areas we will need additional parent help in the next few weeks:
First we need a couple of underclass parents to help with Senior Night. This would include ordering flowers and organizing a reception after the game for Seniors and their families. (Cake and punch.)

Next, we need help with Band Snacks - at home conference games we are required to feed a snack to visiting bands - if you are able to help, we need snacks for 9/17, 9/24 and 10/29.

Please email Ms. Holtshouse if you are able to help!

Reminder that Enjoy the City books are on sale now through Septemebr 15. Order forms and books went home in the last couple of weeks. Orders can be taken on the envelope that the sample book came in. Checks should be made to Midpark Music Boosters.

Also, parents who are helping with chaperoning this year need to get fingerprinted at the board office. (These last for 5 years if you have already done it!)

Thanks for your help!

Admission is $5.00 and will include 2 hours of cosmic bowling and shoes. Please RSVP by email to Ms. Zunic how many people will be attending.

Picture day is Monday! Remember to be at school by 4:15 so you can be dressed and lined up by 4:30 for the picture. Make sure you bring picture forms and money with you.

Pass-Offs are Monday for Pre-Game! We will wear our band Shirts for Meet the Meteors at 7:00 PM. People who are in sports will play with the band at 7:00 and then stay with their teams when the rest of the band leaves for rehearsal.

Please make sure you are practicing your music for the Summer show, Senior Show, and stand tunes! We need a lot of music ready for the teacher's Opening Day performance on August 23!
