Booster Meeting Updated Information:

Mrs. VanDine found this information from the caterer:

  • He has something conflicting on that date with being able to deliver the food to the church for us.  But if we can pick it up (with either a van or a pick-up) he will drop the meal price from $4.75 per person to $4.50 per person to save a little because we are picking up ourselves.  So…we will need someone to pickup the food that day.
  • $4.50 + $.35 tea = $4.85 per person (+ tax)
  • Includes: Asst. pasta, bread/butter, salad/dressing, and tea.
  • Tea will come in buckets and so we will need pitchers to serve it in. (He will also provide a couple of jugs of unsweetened tea. He will also throw in some packets of artificial sweetener for us.) ~The church has pitchers that we can use.
  • He will drop an invoice in the mail and the bill can be paid later.
  • He needs to know an approx. number by Friday, February 26th.
  • Someone will need to return the heating carts to the restaurant either that evening (restaurant open till 9pm) or the next morning (before 11am).

Supplies (from Mrs. Batts):

  • I have found polyester, ivory tablecloths for $11.99 a piece. We can reuse these every year so over time we will save on money.
  • I have purchased the napkins, drink cups, dessert plates, dinner plates, coffee cups, cutlery, and trash bags. 

Coffee and Dessert (Mrs. Fredere)

  • She will be donating the coffee, sugar, and creamer.
  • The church will let us use the coffee maker that night.
  • She has also found a friend to donate cakes for dessert! 

Centerpieces:

  • We will reuse the glass bowls and candles from last year. 
  • Brittany Miller has made the table numbers.

  • Mr. Cutchin has contacted the newspaper about our event.
  • Need Students to make posters.

 Items left to attend to:

  • Student duties: Make list and signup sheet for students. Will complete next week.
    • Tip Jar
    • Coat Check
  • Make posters to post around the school.
  • Find someone with a van to pick up the food and take the heating racks back.
  • Find someone to that has a truck that can pull the trailer Wednesday and Thursday night to bring the instruments and music stands. 

If you can help in any way please let me know.  This is a big event for us and we could use any help we can get! The next Booster Meetings is Monday, March 1st at 7pm.
