BAND PICNIC – The Warhawk Band’s annual Band Picnic will be held Wednesday evening, July 26th, at Walsingham Park. More details will be coming soon.
The annual band garage sale is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, July 22nd, in the Seminole High School parking lot (Saturday of band camp). It’s a great time to get rid of unwanted items and raise funds for the band. Details are currently being worked and more information will be coming soon.
This signup covers all July rehearsal dates (including band camp) and band camp fruit donations.
Lots of volunteers are needed to help with water in the coming month. Thanks in advance to all for your support!
Rental contracts are being processed this week. They are $35 for the summer, and $60 for the fall/spring school year. They have to be re-done in the fall. If a student plays a school instrument over the summer, a contract must be processed, including percussion. This covers instrument repair and maintenance/upkeep of each instrument. This week, an instrument rental contract will be sent home; checks should be made payable to Seminole High School. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Madrinan.
It's up and ready!! The first half of July's Ray's game are published and ready to be grabbed!!

This includes all Marching Band Students! Car Wash this Saturday!
We need parent and student volunteers and donated and loaned items!
So far, Palm Auto is completely filled up for both shifts and Advanced Auto is almost filled up! We still need more chaperones - 4 per shift minimum to help the kids stay safe - and to be in charge of the money. If everyone participates, students need not volunteer for more than 2 hours! But if we don't fill all the slots, students may be asked to stay. So students get other students to participate ... SIGN UP!
We have Car Wash Tickets that you can sign out for Pre-Sale! $5 per ticket! Contact Danah Veitenthal for arranging pick up or be at Thursday’s Booster Meeting to get yours. For each ticket sold, $5 goes directly towards your Fair Share. Monies collected at the Car Washes goes into the General Fund.
If you loan an item for use in the car wash, please be sure to mark it with your name in some fashion for easy return.

The second Forms Night is coming up next week on June 27th at 7 pm. On this night you can pick up your forms if you haven't already, have your Liability Form notarized, arrange for a physical for your child, get finger printed for level 2 volunteer (if quota is met), pay for band camp meals, buy season tickets and have any questions you may have answered. Please plan on attending if you were not able to attend the first mandatory STEP OFF meeting.
EZ-Fingerprinting is scheduled to be at Seminole High School on Tuesday, June 27th at 6 pm to do fingerprinting for level 2 volunteer clearance. If you are thinking about being a chaperone, this is a good time to get this done. The cost is $45 and you must bring a photo ID and know your social security number for the background check. They like to have at least 10 people so if you are interested, contact Kim Bernstein to reserve a spot @ kbernstein68@gmail.com.
If your child is in need of a sports physical (which is required before participating in band camp), Rebecca Martin, Nurse Practitioner, will be available at the next Forms Meeting (and possibly before). Please contact Kim Bernstein to reserve a spot for your child that evening @ kbernstein68@gmail.com or call (727) 403-0141.
