Good morning Band Families,
In case you haven't seen the itinerary yet, I've included it in this email. The competition is a bit earlier in the afternoon so the report time is earlier. I recommend the band students get a bite to eat before the 8:00 am report time. They don't need much because they will have an early lunch. All students are to ride the bus to Jenison. We do need one more chaperone to ride the bus. Please let me know if you'd like to be that chaperone. We also need four more sideline workers. Please contact Joel Comstock if you are interested.

This week we have a few things on the agenda. I hope you can find some time to help out. Tonight, at 6:00 pm we have our monthly Grant Music Booster meeting in the high school band room. Thursday night is full band rehearsal and some of the parents will be getting together to modify the band trailers to accomodate our equipment for competitions. Rehearsal is Friday night is our last home game. We have permission to sell raffle tickets for a 50/50 drawing. I need four people (two pairs) to hawk tickets at the game. This is a licensed raffle and we have the potential to make several hundred dollars. Please email me if you are available to help. Also Friday night, be on the look out for Joel Comstock, he may need some help on the sidelines during the halftime show. If he doesn't have enough people lined up when there is five minutes left in the half he will be scouting the stands for help. On Saturday, we have the Jenison Invitational. Joel needs four more people to help on the sidelines. I sent out an email about Saturday already and forgot to add the additional help that we need on the sidelines. Please reach out to Joel and let him know if you are available to help. We also need a bus chaperone for this trip. As always, if you have any questions, please reach out to Mr. Broome or myself. Thank you, Charlie McKinley President, Grant Music Boosters 231-834-8917 www.grantmusicboosters.org Hello Band Families,
It is once again time to start planning for the Grant Band Invitational. This is the biggest fundraising event of the year and takes a lot of planning and people to make it work. This year we need about 66 people to help out. Without the help of the volunteers we could never pull this off. Please consider helping us out in some aspect or another. You can see the list of workers needed at signup.grantbands.org. If you have any questions, please email or call me. I'll be happy to answer your questions. Thank you so much for the support that you all provide. Charlie McKinley President, Grant Music Boosters [email protected] Eleaze Farrell donates her garage and time to host the Band Yard Sale each year. This year the yard sale will be held September 7, 8, & 9 in conjunction with the Citywide Yard Sales. The items sold are donated items from members of the community and student families. If you have items that you'd like to donate you are welcome to drop them off at her house or you can contact the Grant Music Boosters to arrange for the items to be picked up. Any items not sold will be donated to Love, INC. The proceeds from this sale will be applied to the cost of dry cleaning the marching uniforms and anything left over will be placed in the financial aid fund.
