FUNDRAISERS
Howell Crates - payment & order due this Friday, January 31st if funds to be used for New York Trip!  All other orders due by March 27th
We are selling Howell crates for $30 each ($15 of which will go directly to the HHS band student's fundraising account who sold it to you.)  If you do not request a band member, the money will go back to the Band Boosters to help support things like repairing equipment, our band trailer needs, and buying new vests or jackets for the band. 

If using these funds in Charms to pay for the final New York trip payment, we must have your order AND payment by this Friday the 31st!  Otherwise, payment is required upon pick up/delivery of the crate. All orders due March 27th!  If you need further information, please contact Monica Hacker at Hackerm@howellschools.com.
