Magic of Music Donations!!!
 As you may know, our Magic of Music fund raiser is nearly upon us. Each year the silent and live auctions raise thousands of dollars which fund strategic investments in our music programs. For example, last year we bought new uniforms, which were entirely funded by the previous five Magic of Music events, as well as new field drums for our percussion section. Donations from parents and students have historically been some of the most popular items and I urge everyone to participate. Below are some suggestions for how you can donate. Please find one or more that you would like to offer, or come up with your own creative donation. Fill out the this form and return it and your donation to me before March 15th. If you're creating a package, please make it "auction ready" in an attractive container (basket, covered box, or your unique container.) With everyone's assistance, we look forward to a fun and successful Magic of Music.
If you have any questions don't hesitate to call or email.
Thanks,

Soliciting From a Friend or Business: Do you have a neighbor, friend or relative that owns a business? Do you have a restaurant, hair salon, nail salon or other business you frequent?
