Greetings Warren Band Students and Parents,
Welcome back from the holidays and happy New Year! We hope everyone had a wonderful and safe holiday season! This is the first weekly update e-mail for 2016. Here are some updates and reminders for the week of Jan 4, 2016 (Please make sure you read all items so nothing is missed): 1) Winter Guard Food Fundraiser (Announcement) Date: On-going Thru Saturday January 16 Location: Uno Pizzeria & Grill 6593 Grand Avenue Gurnee, IL Details: Visit Uno and they will donate up to 20 % of your check to the WTHS Winter Guard (Dine-In or Takeout) Purpose: The money raised will help offset winter guard expenses. You must bring this certificate (coupon) and present it to your server. Please come out for some food/drink and support these students at the same time! 2) Marching Band Show T-Shirt Sale (Reminder) We started selling leftover marching band show T-Shirts (Arachnophobia) for $5 each at the last band concerts and will continue to do so until supplies run out. Since they are leftovers, quantity and sizes may be limited. Checks should be made out to the Warren Band Boosters. If you are interested, send in your orders, with payment, to the directors or the booster board members. Paid orders from the last band concerts will be delivered soon to the students thru their directors at school. If you ordered at the last band concerts, but did not pay, please send in your payment. All orders will be filled on a first come basis. 3) Pep Band Games (Reminder) The pep band schedule is still posted in all band rooms. Band students are welcome to attend any or all games. Please attend another game if you cannot attend your band's assigned game. Please note that the Almond Concert Band is scheduled to perform as the pep band this week on Wed and Sat (Jan 6 and 9). Any questions, please contact your director. 4) Marching Band DVD Sale (Reminder) As we have done for years past, we are currently selling a 2 DVD set, consisting of 1 DVD with videos of marching band performances throughout the latest season, along with a second DVD containing a good selection of photos taken by our photographers during these same events. The cost for this set is $15. Please note that we also have a few copies of last year's DVD set for sale for only $10 (limited quantities). Checks should be made out to the Warren Band Boosters. Orders and payment can be given to the directors or the booster board members. 5) Winter Guard Movie Ticket Fundraiser (Update) The initial round of orders (for pre-Christmas delivery) has closed. The Winter Guard will be starting another sale of Marcus Theatre gift cards, gift certificates and discounted movie tickets in the near future, with delivery in time for Valentine’s Day (Feb 14). More details will follow. 6) Dodge Test Drive (Warren Band Fundraiser Reminder) We are working hard and hope to schedule a Dodge Test Drive fundraiser sometime this Spring (maybe late March or early April). More details will follow. 7) Cheesecake Sale (Coming Soon) The last fundraiser for this school year where students can put more money into their trip accounts is a cheesecake sale.
