What a great night of music at the Dinner Show!
Thank you to each person involved with the show… So much love and care going into this special evening to benefit our students. And weren’t they something else! These kids are inspiring and I am so happy to get to work with them.
Feb 12, 2019 | Fundraising
All stubs and cash/checks must be returned by Thursday, February 14th.
Sales continue!
Instructions
(How to raise money for San Diego, Dayton, Disneyland etc.)
- Tickets are $20 each, cash or check, to “LCHS Boosters.” Each student is asked to sell at least two tickets. Students who sell additional tickets will have the funds go directly to their student account.
- Example: If you sell a total of 5 tickets: $40 (2 tickets) goes to the MPA; $60 goes to the student account. Any additional tickets go directly to the student, the MPA only takes first two tickets.
- The tickets are perforated. Just tear off the stub after the buyer fills in their name, email, and phone number. Give the buyer the ticket with the booster logo as their receipt (it has the ticket number on it). The stub (with email, name, and number) needs to be returned with payment.
- All ticket stubs and cash/checks need to be returned to Black Lock Box in the band room! Please put stubs and cash/checks in a sealed envelope with the student’s name, class (7-8 Band, 7-8 Orchestra, 9-12 Band or Color Guard, 9-12 Orchestra).
- All stubs and cash/checks must be returned by Thursday, February 14th.
- Please return any unsold tickets to the Black Lock Box
For additional tickets or questions, students should contact their director, Mr. Stone, Ms. Munday, or Mr. Myers.

Here we are… The start of the season!
Uniforms
9-12 uniforms are in and will be worn on Saturday. Sandy will be at the Band room by 5:30pm on Thursday to check hems prior to rehearsal. Please have your student arrive just a little early to get this done.
7/8 Students
7/8 Drumline students are welcome to ride the bus to the competition and help push equipment on for 9-12 and then enjoy the other groups’ performances with the 9-12 students.
If your 7/8 student is planning on attending, they will need to make sure to complete a Field Trip Form and turn it into Ben or Mr. Myers. Students who have not turned in the Field Trip form will not be able to ride the bus.
Please have your student let Ben know at rehearsal this week if they will be attending so we know who will be there.
Cost for 7/8 to attend is $10 — which is the admission cost to the show.
7/8 may join 9-12 for lunch and pizza dinner.
