Hope to see you at the band booster meeting on Wednesday - all are welcome! A few things we need specific help with:
Band trailer - Chris and Tawnya Benn have graciously and wonderfully taken care of and hauled our band trailer for the past 2 years. However, their daughter is graduating and they are looking for someone to take over next year. If interested, please attend the next band booster meeting for more info or contact Tawnya Benn at sprout1809@gmail.com
Band trailer sponsorships - the trailer was purchased almost 5 years ago thanks to generous donations by our sponsors. Those sponsorships will expire this year and we are looking for potential sponsors and/or someone to help solicit business or individual sponsorships. If you're interested, contact Christyne MacDermaid at 734-476-0312

New Fundraiser - Howell Crates
We are selling Howell crates for $30 each ($15 of which will go directly to the HHS band student 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.
Payment is required upon pick up/delivery of the crate. If you need further information, please contact Monica Hacker at Hackerm@howellschools.com.
