TUPPERWARE FUNDRAISER HAS COME!
The Tupperware fundraiser has started. ORDERS MAY BE DROPPED OFF AT A BLUE VAN NEAR THE SCRIP CAR TODAY, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2. Orders may also be handed in at the next football pitch-in, Sept 10. All orders are due on Sept 10th. If your Tupperware catalog is unused, our Tupperware representative would love to have it back, as they are costly. So please feel free to hand in your catalog even if you do not have an order to hand in.
One-page Tupperware Fundraiser flyers and Tupperware catalogs are still available if you or your student did not pick one up. They can be picked up on Thursday, Sept 2, near the Scrip car, or see the contact names and numbers below to call or email and set up a time to get a packet.
40% of the revenue from the Fundraiser flyer sales will benefit the band. 10% of the revenue from the regular Tupperware catalog sales will benefit the band. The revenue from each students' sales will be split, 75% to the student's account and 25% to the band fund. Merchandise will arrive within 2 weeks of the order. If you need an item sooner, please contact Barb Mounsey, as she keeps hundreds of item in stock at her house.

Yes! They are still available. What you ask? Why, the 2011 Entertainment books. And, yes, there are still some 2010 books. Two for the price of one! Twelve dollars to your account for each sold! They actually earn you money when you use the attached gift cards! So what are you waiting for? See Bill Eagleson between 5 & 6 at the Stadium (or wherever the kids are) on Thursday. Get 'em while you can.
