MarchingBand: Lost and Found

Dear Marching Band Parents and Students,
There is a significant amount of lost and found in the band room ranging from small
items like socks and gloves to tennis shoes, jackets, and bedding(??). It can be found
in (on and around) the blue lost and found tote near the drinking fountain in the
band room.
There are also several tupperware type containers that have been used to drop of
desserts for various events.  
Students are being encouraged to make sure they have all of their belongings now.

Thanks,
Kyle Wellfare
Director of Bands
Caledonia High School
