Fundraisers
The band trip to Florida is approaching quickly and we are working on the final ways to earn money for the trip. Here are some opportunities. These will be reviewed with the students the week of June 22nd. If family members volunteer time, their time will be allocated to the student going on the band trip. If you are not going on the band trip to Florida, you may allocate your funds earned to a general trip fund.
Thanks for your support of Waukee Bands!
1. August 6 BBQ – Parent Preview Night - $5 adults and $3 students and children for a BBQ pork sandwich dinner at 6:00 PM
- Parent Preview of the new show at 7:00 PM and student drawing for prizes after the preview.
- Students will sell tickets for the BBQ dinner from June 22 - July 4 (so that we know the amount of food needed in advance). Kelli McClurg will keep track of ticket sales.
- Students may sell tickets to anyone interested in attending the preview of the 2009 Warrior Regiment’s show – Africa. Each student’s ticket sales money will be credited toward the band trip to Florida.

2. July 4th Sales of water and glow-in-the-dark necklaces and bracelets at Centennial Park 6-10 PM – Students will volunteer to pull wagons with coolers of water and they will sell water and the glow-in-the-dark items
– Items will sell for $1 each - students making the sales will receive credit for the band trip to Florida (each crew will split the profits for the trip- $1 for the water sold and $0.50 for each glow-in-the-dark item sold). We will need to borrow 10 wagons and 10 coolers (or coolers that roll) – bring the coolers/wagons before the parade so the water can be iced down in advance.

Profits from Warrior World go to the general band fund and the donation from Pampered Chef will go to the band trip.
We will put together a flier that you can print and post at your office, local businesses, churches, or wherever you would like so that we may have more people attend and also more potential donors.

7.Fuddruckers For Florida A few times per month from July 6th to September 2th, we will have members of our band at the Fuddruckers restaurant in West Des Moines (6378 Mills Civic Parkway – phone 225-1122)) to promote the Florida band trip. The restaurant will donate 15% of the bill for any patrons who tell the person taking their order that they want to help the Waukee Regiment get to Florida. Students working each evening will split the funds donated for the band trip. It is suggested that the students/parents wear one of their band or Waukee t-shirts/jackets each evening.
This will be a great opportunity for the band members to work together and for the parents to get to know each other. Invite your neighbors, co-workers, and anyone else to eat at the restaurant these nights.
Sign up to verify attendance 5-9 PM each date:
July 6th – Members of the Flute Section
July 20th – Members of the Clarinet Section
August 3rd – Members of the Saxophone Section
August 17th – Members of the Trumpet Section
