40 Parent Drivers/Helpers Still Needed for Tag Day, September 6

Tag Day is next Saturday morning and we still need a lot of help!

 

Tag Day is our biggest annual fundraiser. This year we’ve set a goal of $25,000 as students go door to door, asking community members to support our uniform fund. In order to cover 100% of the Lakota West area, we need nearly 100 adult drivers/helpers (21 years and older) and 100% participation from band students, including freshmen. Volunteering is a great way to get to know other band parents and students. If you’d like to sign up to help, or have questions, email Sandra Snyder at communications@lakotawestbands.org.

 

 

  • The 2008 Parent Shirt (Proud Parent of a Marching Firebird) as seen at Band Camp is now available from the Upbeat Shoppe! Click here to order.

  • Color Guard Fees can now be paid online. Click here.

 

Third Quarter Snacks - Football season is underway.

The home opener is next Friday September 5th. Students are asked to bring a package of cookies on their assigned date. Volunteers will be manning tables where students report to collect cookies. All donations are welcome - store bought or homemade. Please make note of the date for your student's section. Thanks in advance for helping out.

Stock up for back to school at Kroger!

 

It's time to dust off those Kroger Neighborhood Rewards Gift Cards and start using them to raise FREE money for the Lakota West Bands. All Sophomore and Freshmen band/guard members received a Kroger Neighborhood Rewards Card during band camp check in. There is $1.00 loaded onto the card already. Follow the instructions that came with the card to load more money onto your card at the store. Each time you load money onto these Rewards Cards, the Lakota West Bands earn 4% of the total, JUST LIKE THAT! If you shop at Kroger anyway for groceries, gas, household items, this is the easiest fundraiser. The bands make a profit off the money you spend at Kroger.

 

CLICK HERE for more information about the Kroger Rewards Card program!Junior and Senior parents, if you can't find your Kroger Rewards card you got in previous years, don't you worry. I'll be at all of the first concerts of the year selling cards, or you can phone/email me anytime and I'll get a card to you.

 

And if anyone has a student heading off to college in a couple of weeks, you can load up a card and send it with them. Kroger operates (either directly or through its subsidiaries) 2,519 supermarkets and multi-department stores in 32 states under two dozen names including Kroger, Ralphs, Fred Meyer, Food 4 Less, King Soopers, Smith's, Fry's and Fry's Marketplace, Dillons, QFC, City Market, Bakers, Cala Bell, Foods Co., Gerbes, Hilander, Owen's, Pay Less and Jay C.

 

This is by far the easiest fundraiser for the band. If you shop at Kroger for any reason, make sure you have a Kroger Rewards Card from the Upbeat Club. It really is as easy as that!

 

To learn how you can obtain an Upbeat Club Rewards Card and to see how much the band has raised each year from using the Kroger Rewards Card, see the fundraiser page at CLICK HERE or contact Suzanne Brungs at suzanne.brungs@gmail.com.
