All Robinson high school band and orchestra families:

Tag Day is just around the corner!

Thank you to those students and parents who have already volunteered to help.  We still have plenty of opportunities for band and orchestra families to assist with the biggest fundraising day of the year.  If you are available to support Robinson Bands and Orchestras on Saturday, September 12, please reply ASAP to the appropriate person below.

If you would like to drive students on a Robinson neighborhood route so they may request donations, please contact Mary Lou Bare at mlbare(at)gmail.com.

To donate food or help serve our students food before they leave the school to begin fundraising and when they return, please contact Tammy Karas at tammy(at)karas.us.

The treasurers need parents to sort and count money collected.  To volunteer in this capacity, please contact Sandi Shirts at virginiacanuck(at)cox.net.

Many marching band students have already signed up for Tag Day during band week.  If your student has not yet signed up to participate, he or she will be given the opportunity to do so the first day of school in band or orchestra class. Please encourage your child to participate. This year there will be a random drawing for gift card prizes for all student Tag Day participants.  Student and parent volunteers will enjoy a breakfast feast before setting out on the neighborhood routes with plenty of food remaining for when the fundraisers return to Robinson.

Together parents and students can make Tag Day 2009 a huge success!
