Students and Parents, our mulch selling deadline of March 1 is coming soon.

Students, please share in your instagram stories and tag friends and families.

Hello XXXXX!

Hope this email finds you well! Just wanted to let you know STUDENT NAME is

selling mulch this year for Hebron Band’s first ever mulch fundraiser. All funds raised go directly towards supporting our hardworking kids in band with general operating costs, travel costs, uniforms, clinicians, and much more. We are also saving money to address much needed band trailer updates! We fundraise to provide the best experience possible to our students and community. Without fundraising, many of the amazing things our band does would simply not be possible.

We are asking that every student find one donation for the silent auction from a community business. Ask a business that you frequently support. See attached letters and information that you can give businesses when asking for donations/sponsorships.

“Hey band!

The annual garage sale and recycling event is almost here and we need volunteers and your support.

Like last year we’ re looking for 80 band members and 30 adults to work one of two shifts (Morning and afternoon). There are plenty of roles to fill including helping receive donations, pricing, help people with the purchases to their vehicles, road advertising, and the such.

We also need your donations for the garage sale, and Good News! We have our storage location 3 weeks earlier this year. If you have donation please place them in boxes in a manner where the boxes can be closed and stacked. At this time we can’t accept large furniture, but small items (like shelves) can be accommodated. If you have donations please contact Glenn Kimball at garagesale@hebronband.org to schedule a drop off or pick up. Finally, for the day of the sale we need any old hangars and plastic grocery bags.

This year we are doing more community outreach also. We’ll be reaching out to local businesses in the area and posting garage sale flyers advertising the event beginning March 15th, we could really use your help getting the word out. The more buyers we drive to the event the better. Once again contact me at garagesale@hebronband.org

Thanks in advance for all you do, AIATT.
