-URGENT URGENT URGENT NEED - The Band Boosters is in need of a treasurer! Cindy, our current volunteer treasurer is retiring (her kids graduated last year and she’s agreed to stay until we find her replacement!). This position does require organization, and bookkeeping experience is a plus (but not necessarily required). The treasurer works closely with Mr. Wellfare and our boosters board to make sure that the financial needs of our program are met and that our finances stay in order. Everything is very organized so it is an easy transition to someone new and we will train anyone interested. Please email Mr. Welfare (wellfarek@calschools.org) if you can help in this area!

Scrap Metal Drive Info and Volunteers

Saturday September 18, is our Annual Scrap Metal Drive (see attached for details) from 9:00am - 4:00pm in the Stadium Parking Lot.

This is a great opportunity for you to clean out the garage before winter and for our students and parents to help out the band program!

We need student and adult volunteers to make this event happen.

Click Here to Sign-Up

School code is “caledoniaband” if it asks for one.

Volunteers will need to wear closed toe shoes and it is recommended that gloves be worn. Volunteers will help donors unload their scrap metal and put it in the dumpster. It’s a fun way to earn volunteer hours and is also quite stress relieving!

Thanks for your consideration!
