BAND CAMP FORMS / FUNDRAISER INFO

 MARCHING BAND / CAMP

Good Evening!!  As promised all of the paperwork from the band camp meeting is now here for your use.  Please click on what is needed, print it, fill it out in full and turn it in by the due date. Band camp forms are also available in the band room.  Please do not hesitate to ask questions of the people that are mentioned as helpers in the Marching Band Packet.  There are no silly questions.  Marching Band and Band Camp are AWESOME!!

STUDENT PACKET - MARCHING BAND/CAMP 2022

SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION - DUE APRIL 21ST!

SCRIPS
  • PAY FOR BAND CAMP AND OTHER BAND EXPENSES BY SHOPPING!
How much money do you spend in a month for regular expenses-  $600 for groceries, $200 for gas, $100 dining out…?  If you paid for those regular expenses using a gift card purchased from the HHS Band Scrip Program, you would get a rebate on each purchase, a rebate that  goes straight into your student's CHARMS fundraising account. Earn money for band camp, instrument lessons, future band trips, etc.

HHS Band Scrip uses the Great Lakes Scrip Center for ordering cards. They have this great YouTube video that explains the basics of the program:


You can sign up right away using enrollment code C436CCB458883 (to get to the Band Account).

Questions?  You can email our SCRIPS coordinator, Beth Wagner at lisbethwagner@yahoo.com
Once you learn how the ordering system works, this is the easiest money you will ever earn for band expenses. And you earn the rebates on money you have to spend anyway. Put your spending to work for you!

COOKIE DOUGH FUNDRAISER
FACEBOOK FUNDRAISER - YOU COULD WIN MARCHING BAND/CAMP TUITION!!!

Last year, 2 band moms ran an online drawing through a private Facebook group.  And coming this April, we will be repeating this drawing with the prize being free tuition for band camp.  The way this drawing works is:

·        I will post the Item on the Facebook Group (Howell Band Boosters Online Raffle)

·        We will sell 50 tickets at $10 each.  The tickets will go on sale on Monday, April 18th at 7pm.

·        You will purchase a ticket through our PayPal link.  And you will add a picture of your PayPal receipt to the comments of the Facebook post.

·        Once we sell 50 tickets, we turn off comments to the post.

·        We will offer 2 marching band camp tuition drawings. 

·        So once the 1st drawing sells out, I will post an additional drawing.

·        Once we sell 50 tickets, we turn off comments to the post.

·        The actual drawing will occur on April 21 at 7pm via Facebook live.

·        By limiting the tickets to 50 for each drawing, your chances of winning are greatly increased.

How do you participate?  To participate in the drawing, you would need to join our Facebook Group.  As our group is PRIVATE, you will need to be invited to the group.  If you are interested in joining us, please send an email to Dana Sleder at dcsleder@sbcglobal.net.  Once you are a member of the group, you can invite other people to join.  This would be a great way to reach anyone who might be interested in having a chance to send a child to band camp for free.


Thanks - Dana
