Festival Results and Chili Bingo

Dear Parents,

What a great day today was!  Intermediate and Advanced Band just returned from the Washoe County Band Festival and received top honors.

Intermediate Band was awarded unanimous "superior" ratings!

Advanced Band was awarded two "superior" ratings and one "excellent" rating!

On a side note, Carson High School's band also earned unanimous "superior" ratings!

What better way to celebrate these results than to have a fun filled event on Friday evening, all in the name of helping support the bands.  That's right, Bingo Chili Night is right around the corner.  Students will be expected to turn in all remaining tickets and money by their class period on Friday.  Thanks to the tireless efforts of multiple devoted parents, we have a terrific prize list that includes Mt. Rose lift tickets, golf packages, a multitude of gift certificates, and even a grandfather clock! 

Come on Friday from 6-8 PM and eat delicious chili, bid on the silent auction, and see if you won a raffle prize.  The Royal Blue Jazz Band will be providing the musical entertainment for the evening. 

If you're interested in helping out, we need support with the following things during the event:
- Ticket Sorting from 2:30 PM
- General Set up from 4-6 PM
- Concessions from 5:30-8 PM
- Ticket Sales from 6-8 PM
- Check-in Table from 5:30-8 PM
- Silent Auction from 6-8:30 PM
- Calling raffle prizes at various times during event
- Clean Up from 8 PM until whenever we're done.
 
I hope to see you all there on Friday, March 28.  It should be an amazing event, and a very successful fundraiser that gets the band one step closer to our goal of having secure instrument storage cabinets.  Another update will be published following Bingo Chili Night.  More later!
