We need to know if there is any further interest or did you miss the last one? We can schedule another on-site fingerprinting if I have 10 people that tell me that they will be there from 6-6:45 pm on 7/24.
Seminole Sound is September 30th this year! That’s only 2.5 months away.
For two weeks, veteran band parents that have sold to businesses in the past, may contact those businesses for ad sales again. After July 25th, all businesses are fair game to any parent wishing to sell advertising. Get out there and sell sell sell -- this is a great way to fundraise for your fair share! More information to come. And new ad forms will be available at the Booster Meeting on 7/18, or you can email Kim Bernstein @ kbernstein68@gmail.com
Where: We have tag days set up at the Oakhurst Publix at 9201 Oakhurst Rd, Seminole
When: This Saturday - July 8th, Sunday July 16th and Sunday August 20th.
Shifts are available from 9am to 5pm.
What is Tag Day? - Tag day is fundraiser where the students stand out in front of Publix, work two hour shifts and play music or spin guard equipment for donations from patrons of the store. One chaperone is required per shift. A bucket is usually used for donations. The money that is earned that day will be divided among the students per the hours they were there for their shift. This is an individual fundraiser and will be applied to their Charms ledger.
Dress: The students must wear their green polo shirt or Percussion Jersey and appropriate shorts or pants. Closed toe shoes are a must.
What to bring: Students should bring their music, instruments, flags, rifles etc. They will be performing during the two hours they are there. Water is also a good idea, as they will be standing outside during their shifts.
Parents: We need your help too! A parent is needed for each shift, so please sign up for a two hour shift at one of our tag days.
Please contact Danah Veitenthal at 727-475-0427 or warhawkbandmom@gmail.com, with any questions.

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.
