SCHS Music Notes
December 16, 2019
BRAVO!!!
I am so proud of our student performers (and arrangers) for putting on an amazing concert with very little time to prepare. It is a testament to their ambition, leadership, and tenacity.
Thank You Again to our Phenomenal SIlent Auction Committee Members: Heather Gertzki, Nora George, Alicia Breton, Melissa Conrey, Julita Cummings, Ulrika Lerner, Anne-Marie Sweeney & Nicole Tappin.
And Thank you to all who came out and supported us!
Barnes & Noble Gift Wrapping Fundraiser is This Weekend!
We still need:
Wrappers: Should be proficient in wrapping and/or trained prior to event - i.e. sharp, clean edges with minimal tape usage and straight cut edges and folds; tight ribbons and bows. Tips are dependent on this!
Assistants: organize crowds, checks receipts while they wait in line for wrapping, asks choice or wrapping, can cut appropriate-sized wrapping paper ready for the next available wrapper - basically helps move things along when there is a wrapping line. This person can also assist with handing out gift tags and pens. Assistant does not have to be proficient in wrapping just be willing to communicate politely and clearly with the public.
Greeters: cheerfully greet customers at the door or standing in line to pay and inform of free gift wrapping services offered by Sage Creek HS Music.
Entertainers: i.e. Jazz Combo, Drumline, Christmas Chamber Groups set up to play outside B&N to draw customers in.
Please Only ADD Information (do not change anyone else's sign up).
Best Wishes for the Holidays and a Happy New Year!
