The
annual candy sale is in progress! This is our largest fundraiser of the year and
we thank all orchestra families who are
participating. The profits help fund various events and classroom purchases
throughout the year.
During
the past years our fundraising efforts have resulted in many events, including a
fieldtrip to a Columbus
Symphony concert for the Middle School and Junior High orchestra students, the
annual hayride, ice skating party, spring picnic, and the Awards night. The
funds have also been used for the purchase of a computer, a stereo system, and a
Yamaha Clavinova piano for each school. Each school also benefits from the
compact disc recordings and videotapes that are purchased for our listening
library. Our candy sale profits fund many of the day-to-day necessities used in
teaching orchestra students. Students can also earn camp/trip credit$ to help
pay for summer music camps and the bi-annual high school trip. We hope all
families will support this endeavor, since all students benefit directly from
the monies earned.
Candy
will be available for pickup on Wednesday, October 16 at the Reynoldsburg Junior
High School between 3:00 and 7:00 P.M.
Money must be turned in no later than Friday, October 25. Details for turning in
money will be available when orders are picked up.
Unfortunately, we had some problems last year. Undelivered candy and candy
damaged by heat reduced our profits and the awards
we were able to provide our students. We ask parents to help insure that the
candy sold by their students is delivered and that care
be taken not to allow the candy to be left in vehicles where the heat will spoil
the candy.
