Seminole Band Jackets are now available to order for students and parents. The cost of the jacket can vary depending on what is ordered, but the basic jacket with the logo on the back and a first name on the front is $44. Adding a last name is +$4 and adding an instrument is +$4 (additional charge for plus sizes). A sample photo of the jacket and the pricing information is included on the attached form.
Band Hats are now available to order for students and parents. The cost of each cap or visor is $11. A sample photo of the cap and visor is included on the attached form.
Please see the attached order forms for all the price and sizing information. We will place a third order before the Holidays if there is interest (date will be set later). We can order jackets/hats throughout the year, so there will be more opportunities for ordering if you do not place now. The orders will take approximately 2-3 weeks for delivery.
Please place all orders and money in a marked envelope in the Blue box. Checks are payable to SHSBB and one check for entire order is acceptable. Payment due at time of order. Please contact Kathy Hollaway at kathy.hollaway66@gmail.com with any questions. Thanks!
Jackets and hats are NOT MANDATORY.
The forms are on the website link below, under Misc. forms.
We desperately need parents to sign up to help work the concession stands at our home games this football season. We only have 1 game left. We also need 7 volunteers (5 staff, 2 grillers) for the last football game on Friday 11/2. This is Senior Night, so many of our parents that normally volunteer are unable to do so. This is one of our busiest nights and potentially one of the best for fundraising!
This is a fun way to help the general fund! The concession operations are an important general fund money maker for the band, historically raising $10,000 for our band kids each season! Please consider joining us for one game or all games! We work hard, but it is ALWAYS FUN! We would love to have you! Signup using this link: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080a4fa9ae23a46-2018
You will find an itinerary attached, and some details below. If you have any questions regarding this trip, please direct them to Heather Davis at heatherdarrdavis@gmail.com. They will need to bring money for concessions.

We need volunteers to help with the following water duty/rehearsal chaperone shifts this week. It’s still quite hot outside, and we still have several kids who need extra help to tolerate it. We need to fill these shifts to help support the kid and instructors. Please, please, PLEASE sign up and help us help them.
Many times, our parents who regularly chaperone football games and competition trips fill these spots. While we do appreciate all they do for the program, we need help from other volunteers so that our this team doesn’t get run down and burnt out during this extremely busy time.
