More Updates
Concert Uniforms
Each student will need to have formal concert attire for our Holiday Band Concert.
Concert attire should be ordered through Cousin's Apparel before October 17 to ensure timely delivery and possible exchanges in case an item does not fit.
A full list of approved items and links can be found at https://www.dublinjeromeband.org/concert-attire.
If you already have a concert uniform that fits, you do not need to order another.
TOUS les JOURS Fundraiser
Enjoy fresh pastries, breads and drinks at TOUS les JOURS Bakery and Cafe (SR 161 location only) and help raise funds for the Jerome Marching band.
This Thursday, October 9, when you mention the Jerome Band or show this flyer, 20% of your purchase will be donated to the band program.
Please share it with family and friends!
Concessions
We just had three soccer playoff games added to our concessions schedule.
This is a great opportunity for any family who has yet to complete their 3 shifts for the fall. If you can assist, please sign up! Thank you!
Uniforms
There have been a lot of gauntlets lost or mixed up this season. Please write your name on a piece of masking tape, and place it on the tags of both gauntlets. It is also helpful to label shoes.
Lost items will need to be replaced at the expense of the student. Replacement gauntlets are $53.
Volunteers are needed for Uniform Check-In nights, especially after competitions – Oct.18 and 25.
Uniforms Wash Crew: Drop off clean uniforms this Wednesday, Oct. 8 from 5:15-5:45. The next wash night is Oct. 18.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Best,
Mr. Abrams
