Ryle Band Update – February 5 Edition
Greetings Band Families,
Happy February!
FUNdraising
- Entering the last month of the raffle- turn in your sold ticket stubs each week! As of now, we have only sold 206 tickets out of a hopeful 1900.
- We have not sold enough tickets to cover the $4,000 prize, yet, so at this point the raffle is operating at a loss
- All we need is for each student to sell 10 tickets. If we do not sell our target, we will have to make cuts to our program in the future
- We are preparing to hold a mulch sale for the spring. Contact Sarah Newman at 859.496.5414 to help or if you have questions
- We have plenty of Basketball Concessions opportunities coming up, with two this week.
