Updates from Monday night's Band Boosters Board Meeting (courtesy of Band Secretary Janine Dorsey):

We have picked a date for the Rehearsal-thon fundraiser:

Students will have approx. one month (forms to come) to raise at least $40 to participate in the Rehearsal-thon.

The rehearsal and party will be held immediately after school on Friday, Nov. 6th in the band room and cafeteria. The performance will be held Saturday, Nov. 7th at Old Hyde Park Village from 4 to 6 p.m.

We need about 10 volunteers to set up and help with the party on the 6th. We also need about 5 parents to help get band equipment to the site on the 7th.


--------------
This Friday, Oct. 9 is Middle School band night at Plant High (full details in below post). Students: Please eat a snack before your parents bring you to Plant. Your dinner will not be served until after half-time of the football game.

The next Spirit Night is Tuesday, Oct. 27 at Westshore Pizza, from 5:30 to 9 p.m. Eat in or take out pizza, and mention the Coleman Band, and the band will receive a portion of what you spend. Also: Westshore Pizza $10 gift cards are available for $6 during Spirit Night, and the Coleman Band will benefit from those purchases, too. Westshore Pizza is at 4802 W. Bay Court Ave. (south of Euclid). Phone: 832-5331

We raised $110 from our Spirit Night at Tahitian Inn in September.
