March Band Booster Meeting
Mar 12 @ 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM
This is a *very* important meeting where we will set nominations for next year’s Booster Board, and also take a general membership vote on proposed by-laws revisions.
If you have not yet taken the elections survey to give us your interest in helping either on the Board or in volunteering, please do so.
*As of right now*,  we have no coverage of the concessions stand duties (2VP and 2VP Assistant positions).  Concessions is key to keeping our fees low.  Not only does concessions offer a means for fee credits from working slots, but it also brings a net general fund profit into the band.   Our Booster Association will lose concessions at Buckhorn if we cannot manage and staff it.  There are a lot of programs that would step forward and lobby to take it and the $25,000 to $30,000 of net revenue it generates.
If we lose concessions next year, all our fees would increase by approximately $175 or more for each student.
Remember, all VP duties include a $500 student fee credit either zeroing out or substantially decreasing parent’s costs for their student.
We also have created a new Treasurer Assistant Position which is a great way to help and learn about our Booster Association.
If you have been on the fence for potentially stepping forward to help out on the Board or specifically in concessions, please let me know.  Now is the time to step forward!

Fall Break
Oct 5 all-day

Fall Break PROTOCOL – It has always been my policy not to require student participation during commonly recognized holidays or school calendar breaks.  Therefore, as before, we will not have rehearsals during the week of Fall break.
However, we strive to support the school, football team, and community at the varsity football game during Fall break, October 9th at home versus Athens.
Any student who is out of town and unavailable will not be penalizedAny student who is in town is asked to come and support our performance.  It will be a bonus 100 point test grade.
We will meet on our field at 5:00 to take roll, warm-up, and coordinate how we’ll do things.  During half-time, we may perform show music from the stands if too many students are missing.
