Dear Band Parents and Students:

 

The Jefferson Band of Blue Parent Association is sponsoring the 44th Annual Jefferson High School Band Carnival on Tuesday, February 12th, from 5:00 to 9:00 pm.   Food, fun, games and music are on hand for the evening. It is one of the major fundraising events for the organization. The large raffle includes a Grand Prize of a 42” LG Plasma HDTV Television valued at $1,200.00.  The second prize is an Apple iPod Touch 16GB valued at $425.00 and the third prize is a Nintendo Wii Game System valued at $249.00.  Tickets are on sale for $2.00 each from any band student or by calling Lynn O’Connor at 396 -2233.  The drawing will be held at the end of the performances on February 12th.  Winners need not be present to win.

 

During the evening festivities there will be a small raffle with tickets for 50 cents each or 12 tickets for $5.00.  Small raffle prizes are numerous and include a variety of donated items.  There will also be a silent basket auction throughout the evening.  The small raffle and the food will be provided in the Jefferson Choir room.  The carnival game tickets are 25 cents each and the game area will be in the hallway near the Little Theatre and the Auditorium and will run from 5:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m.
