Special LW Upbeat Club meeting on Thursday, 10/09 immediately following Silvers at 9:00pm.  It will be held in the Lakota West stadium stands in front of the press box if band is rehearsing on field and in choir room if band is rehearsing in auditorium due to inclement weather.  Meeting for limited purpose of approving budget for Haunted House on October 24 and 25.  The Haunted House is a fundraiser for the Rose Parade® Trip.

Concert Band Students:  If your student does not have their bow tie and cummerbund for concert this week, they can still purchase ($12) in band on Friday, October 10.

Spirit Wear:   The Spirit Wear Order Form has been updated to include several new items that are being offered to Rose Parade® families and friends.  We are offering 2 versions of the parent jacket in either black and gray or red and gray (these are similar to the student jackets).  The 2nd page of the updated order form includes both options.   In addition to the two jacket color options, you have the option of selecting either a white Rose Parade® logo or a full-color Rose Parade® logo on the back of the jacket.

Additionally, you have to option to pre-purchase an official 2015 Rose Parade® program.  The programs need to be ordered by 10/25 (money received by Spirit Wear Chair).  Programs will be available to pre-purchase at Uno’s Dough Raiser, band concerts, Silvers on Thursdays, or by mailing your order form .  Each program will cost $10.00 (same as retail). Programs will be shipped in early December.  Each program needs to be purchased in advance and ordered before 10/25 – so please get your order in soon!  (Order forms are on the 2nd page of the spirit wear order form).  By ordering your program in advance, you will have it at home.  You don’t need to worry about packing it, causing your baggage to be over weight, and the program is less likely to get wrinkled or wet at home!
