Fundraising Underway!

Greetings Hoover Band supporters!

We have a couple fundraising events coming up.  Actually, one is on-going and one will be a single day event.

As you know from previous posts, our equipment truck is in need of a serious make-over to make it into the Hoover Tornado Marching Band equipment truck.

The best estimate for having the outside done is just around $3000.00.  Yes, thats three thousand dollars.  That's a lot.

However, we have good news!  We already have HALF of it!  A fund of $1500 has been made available to us and now its up to us to raise the remaining amount and get this truck done!

Flyers will be going out with the band students this week for our on-going fundraising.

We want everyone to take that money they would have spent buying the useless and junky products that bands sell for fundraising, and just send it to the band.  Wouldn't that be a better use of that $25?  Send it directly to the band and we get 100% of it instead of having to give 60% or more to a company who provides junk for us to sell!

If you wish to donate directly to the cause, we can take cash or personal checks.  Please make your checks payable to HOOVER HIGH SCHOOL.  Also, if you wish to donate with a credit card, email me and I can set up to accept your donation through PayPal and get you a receipt for the amount.  And remember, all donations are TAX DEDUCTIBLE!

Yes thats right!  You want a nice tax deduction for a charitable donation?  Give it to the band and we will provide you with a receipt you can use on your tax return!

You can send your donation with your student, if you have one in the band, or mail it directly to the boosters at:

HTMB Boosters
c/o Michael Risner
PO Box 5781
Glendale, CA 91221

Include your return address and we will send you a receipt back for your donation.

Upcoming, we have the Hoover Block Party on April 16th.  Come join Hoover, Toll and Keppel for a really great block party after Spring Break.  The Hoover Band will perform and we will have a food booth set up selling pizza by the slice!  Bring an appetite and a few dollars and let us feed you and entertain you!
