- The second Disney payment of $250 is past due. Checks (made payable to LRHSBands) should be placed in the band room safe or you can pay via PayPal: Making Payments via Paypal
- Payment #3 is due in two weeks on Monday, December 5. Please note that the luminary and fruit & flowers fundraising totals are not yet available to offset trip costs. That money will most likely be available to put toward trip payments in January (luminaries) and February (fruit & flowers).
- Our VPs will provide important trip details in the weeks to come. In the meantime, keep an eye out for deals on these items during the holiday shopping season: Disney Park Essentials
2. Priority Request from the Bands Club Board:
We have a priority need for a photographer and videographer for the concert/intermediate bands. The main job would be to record/photograph the concerts. The winter concerts are fast approaching with intermediate/concert band/ jazz band winter concerts on December 15th and symphonic winter concert on December 16th. If someone has a way to record or photograph the concert on equipment other than a cell phone, please reach out to Allison Bullard (abullard2@wcpss.net) or Ms. Colburn (acolburn@wcpss.net). Without a videographer, we will need to pay someone to record the concerts.
3. Thank You from the Bands Club Board:
The hospitality positions for intermediate and concert bands have been filled! Thank you so much to Dina Wolstromer (Intermediate), and Amy Russell and Sofia Lopez-Richert (Concert) for stepping up!
We are excited that we will have a reception following both winter concerts in December.
