Cresc. Club

HELLO–

In the past Crescendo Club has provided bottled water for camp to insure the kids stay hydrated and that we have the same water for all EFHS campers.  I need CC parents to get water TODAY :)  so it will be packed on the bus TOMORROW

I need assistance in sewing 2 sets of flags for colorguard this year–please let me know if you are available.

Hello–

 We are in NEED of basket items for the Instrumental Spring Concert–please send them into school with your child and give them to Mrs. V by NEXT TUES. May 27th!!

We need parent volunteers to help come sell tickets ahead of time Thurs. and Friday at Edsel.  Tickets are $15 for 2 games, which includes shoes.  Bowling is THIS FRIDAY at Oxford Lanes at 9 pm.

Hello–

 Mr. Doyle and Mrs. V need parents that are willing to get up and speak about the music department and your child’s involvement on TUESDAY APRIL 1st at the 2nd Annual THUNDERBIRD MUSICAL EXPERIENCE that we are having for the middle school students.

Hello–

ORDER SCRIP!!!  The 2nd round of order forms for the Scrip Fundraiser have gone out to the music students in class.  If you did not receive one, please see Mrs. V or Mr. Doyle.  This order is due Feb. 6th.

Thanks to all who donated items for the fall concert baskets…it was a great success!

- Please encourage your students to take advantage of the Candle Fundraiser!   Everything they earn goes directly into their account! Remember, they make great gifts!  The inital deadline for turning order in has past, but if you contact Cindy Kalandek she would be happy to set up a candle party at your home to help facilitate orders.  She will be set up at the Dec. 12th Winter Concert–those sales will go directly into our “Florida Trip money” which is to help offset the cost of the trip for the students.

- “SCRIP” Fundraiser information has been passed out and explained to students. Orders are due NO LATER THAN Dec.6th so the gift cards can be ordered and returned to you before the winter break. - No Crescendo Club meeting in December

WE NEED YOU!  Involved Parents are a HUGE component of the success of the Music Department; if you are a parent of a 9-11 grader, please get inolved in the Instrumental or Vocal Departments!  Both departments this year have quite a few senior parent volunteers that will be leaving after this school year.  There are a variety of ways to support the departments even if the Tues. evening Cresc. Club meetings happen to be a conflict for you.  Please contact Caryn Archer, 271-2368, the Crescendo Club President. THANKS!

Cresc. Club puts together baskets that are raffled off at each of the concerts in both the Instrumental and Vocal departments. Please bring in nice, small items to put in each of the baskets for this fall.  Caryn Archer needs donations for the Fall Fest Concert by TUES. Oct. 23rd, and donations for the Autumn Song Concert by MON. Oct. 29th.  You can turn the CLEARLY marked items for baskets in to Mrs. V or Mr. Doyle.
