The RHS Band Parent Organization is proud to announce & promote a new fundraiser for all RHS Band Students that starts today. The deadline for this Student Fundraiser is Thursday, July 1st, 2010. We ask that you place your order forms and money in a sealed envelope with your student’s name & phone number on the outside, and then place this envelope in the locked silver Hy-Vee box, which will be located in the RHS administrative office. For every 1 pound bag of coffee that your student sells for $14.00, 50% of the profits ($7.00 per bag) will be put into your Students band account. As an added incentive, for every 25 bags your student sells during the month of June 2010, they will receive a $10.00 gift certificate to the location of the fundraiser coordinator’s choosing. You also have the option of Jungle Beans Coffee generating an individual “key code” for your child to order online. This can run concurrently & proceeding the brochure fundraiser. Your student will continue to be credited 50% of individual sales total into their individual student accounts for the entire year. On Monday, July 12th, the coffee orders will be delivered & distributed in the West Parking Lot of the school from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. You and/or your student must be there to pick up the coffee at that time. If you cannot make it to pick up your order please make arrangements with another family/student to pick it up.
