Dear Band Members/Band Parents,

It is now time to start selling our frozen foods!  Every student that is interested in selling, will have a meeting on Tuesday, Oct 17th at 10:30AM in SRB (in band room) to go over details of the sale, but I wanted to post this information so the parents have this as well.  Students - If you didnt make this meeting today, YOU CAN STILL SELL!  Come see me for the materials!

WHEN
The frozen food sale will start Tuesday, Oct 17th and go until Tuesday, October 24th.  Order forms only (no money) will be collected on the 24th.

DELIVERY
Delivery for frozen food has been set for Thursday, November 16th at 3:15PM in the loading dock area of the PAC.

PROFITS
Each student will receive 40% profits for regular items and 30% profits for bulk items into their student accounts.

ONLINE COMPONENT
Great American Fundraising has an online component to the sale this year.  This means that you can sell to people that do not live in Mitchell!  Information on how to set this up can be found by downloading this document.

THINGS TO REMEMBER:

1) When food is delivered (Nov 16th), please bring me ONE CHECK WRITTEN TO THE MITCHELL MUSIC BOOSTERS in the total amount of your sale.  You can then collect from your customers when you deliver to reimburse yourself.  You can decide whether you want to collect from your customers before or after delivery....JUST DONT HAVE THEM WRITE THE CHECK TO US...IT GOES TO YOU TO OFFSET THE CHECK YOU GIVE TO US!!  We do not cash these checks for 2 weeks which allows you all PLENTY of time to get that money back into your accounts.

2) Delivery is Thursday, November 16th.  We DO NOT have freezer space here at the high school if your child forgets to pick up your food..so please help your child plan ahead to pick up all food that is sold.

3) No fundraiser here at MHS is mandatory.  If you do not want to sell food, you DO NOT HAVE TO PARTICIPATE.  The main goal of this fundraiser (like most) is to allow students to deposit fundraising money into their student accounts.  The student accounts can then be used for band tours or any other musical activity and its associated expenses.  

If anyone has any questions, please let me know.  Happy selling!

Thanks!
