FUND-RAISING INFORMATION

Football program sales (5 home games)  

Individuals sell programs at the beginning of each home game.  Four to six parents are needed at each game.  

Entertainment books  

Runs from mid September to early October.  Students sell or take orders for the locally produced coupon book.  

Magnet Sales  

Magnet stands for Magazine network (this is our easiest fundraiser) and occurs in September.  Students complete addresses in a provided booklet.  The booklets are turned into QSP (a branch of Readers Digest).  The company then does all the rest of the work and we reap the profit.  Volunteer is needed to present the fundraiser to the students and then collate the books for turn in.  

Fruit Sales  

This is one of our largest and longest running fundraisers.  This fundraiser occurs from late October to mid November.  Volunteers are needed to prepare packets including order forms and price guides to hand out to students.  When orders are turned in they are then compiled to send to the company.   More volunteers are then required to unload the fruit upon delivery and sort for student pick up.  This usually occurs the first or second week in December.

Silent Auction  

This event occurs at the Winter Concert, December 13, 2006.  Volunteers are needed to solicit items, set up the tables prior to the concert and help collect the proceeds.  

Norfolk Tides Baseball Game  

This event occurs from late April to early June depending upon when we are able to schedule a date with Tides organization.  Band members sell tickets to a Tides game, the band then performs the National Anthem at that game.  As an incentive the student who sells the most tickets is invited to throw out the first pitch at the game!  Volunteers are needed to coordinate with the Tides organization for the printing and distribution and selling of the tickets.  

Car Washes  

We schedule from 3 to 4 car washes per year depending upon availability of locations.  Volunteers are needed to coordinate the scheduling of the events and to chaperone the car wash and to collect the proceeds.
