THANK YOU TO OUR GARAGE SALE COMMITTEE, Glenn Kimball, Berenice Colmenero, Jessica Gillespie, and Veronica Hernandez, FOR MAKING THE GARAGE SALE A HUGE SUCCESS!! Thank you to all the volunteers!!!!

If you helped with the Garage Sale and forgot to sign in and want your FUNDRAISING CREDIT, please fill out this form ASAP. https://forms.gle/pvHf3y2pQJr86vBo6

“C” is for COOKIE, that’s good enough for me! Don’t be a cookie monster, buy cookie dough for your Mom or other women in your life for Mother’s Day! Buy them for your neighbor who you always borrow stuff from! Buy them for your boss before asking for a raise;) Impress your Prom date with your baking skills! Heck, treat yourself! These are frozen and come pre-cut so they could not be easier to bake.

If you participated in butter braids, this fundraiser is very similar.

Here’s how it works:

1. Share this flier with friends and family via text, email, AND social media. The sale is ONLINE ONLY and will last from Sunday, April 14th until Monday April 29th.

2. Family and friends will choose your name and order here: https://www.hebronband.org/cookie dough

3. On Thursday, May 9th, the cookie dough will be delivered to Hebron and you will pick up your orders after school from 4-5:30 pm in Circle Drive.

4. You will deliver your cookie dough to friends and family. These come frozen and need to be delivered immediately or stored in your freezer until delivery, which needs to be completed before Mother’s Day!

We are asking that every band student sell at least 2 cookie dough, but if you want to sell more, that is wonderful! Even if you have met your fundraising goal, we are still asking each student to sell 2!!!

The TOP 5 Sellers will get a FREE cookie dough of their choice!

Don’t want to sell cookies? You can do the buyout here - https://paybee.io/@hebronband@91

If you have any questions, please reach out to Jessica Gillespie & Alison McCoy at butterbraids@hebronband.org
