Fundraise Genius logo

Our Fundraise Genius fundraiser raised $6,057.34! Congratulations to our top fundraiser, Stephanie Dossey, who raised over $1000!

All funds raised support the CHS Band Booster, which supports the band throughout the year.

Volunteers

The Pit Crew needs you! Pit Crew helps move equipment on and off the field at halftime. Volunteers receive free entry into the game (subject to host school rules) and entry into an end-of-season drawing for a Visa gift card.

Thank you to our volunteers who helped out last week! The concession stand sold over $1,800 on Friday night, with all profits benefiting the band.

Volunteer opportunities are posted to Charms. For more information, contact volunteer coordinator Lorna Tran at lotran914@gmail.com.

Car Decorating

Show your MEB spirit as we travel to Granbury! Boosters will host a car decorating party at 5:00 in the CHS teacher parking lot (near the band hall entrance) and convoy to the game at 5:30. Best decorated cars will be featured on our social media and next week’s newsletter!

Uniforms

Supply chain issues continue to affect many industries in the US. This includes our marching shoes and printed uniform tops. As soon as those items arrive, we will begin wearing uniforms on Friday nights. Until then, we will continue to wear our purple shirts and appropriate shorts/pants (TBD pending weather). Watch your text messages for updates.
