Annual
Candy Sale
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.
We have a new catalogue this year so we hope you found an orchestra
student and shopped!
During
the past years our fundraising efforts have resulted in many events, including a
field trip 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.
Order forms AND money were due on Wednesday,
September 24, 2003. MONEY MUST BE TURNED IN WITH THE ORDERS!
Candy will be available for pickup on Thursday, October 23 at the Reynoldsburg Junior High School between 3:00 and 7:00 P.M. Unfortunately, we have had some problems in the last few years. 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.
