Please ensure that your order taker and money match upon turning in the cookie dough money tomorrow. Students should report to the band room in the morning as soon as they arrive at school to turn in their money and form in a sealed envelope.
If a student sold online orders then they do not have to do any work for that portion. It is automatically done for them!

Carowinds Downpayment:
Please remember that your Carowinds downpayment for all 8th graders and chaperones is due next Friday, November 12th. You may pay in cash, check or online. The cookie dough fundraiser can lower that payment by 3 dollars per item sold. Take the number of items sold and multiply it by $3 to get your total off of the $50 deposit and entire trip payment in general.
Feel free to contact me with any questions and let me know if you are available to volunteer in the next couple of weeks!
Sincerely,
M. Menendez
