Chippewa Valley High School Bands

These "smaller" fundraisers are optional for any parent or student to participate in. The funds raised from these fundraisers are generally deposited into the Student Account of students that participated but sometimes are used to add to the General Fund as well.  See each below to determine which fund it contributes to.

Each student is asked to sell at least two entertainment books each. The cost is $20 per entertainment book.  $5 goes directly to the selling students Student Account per book. Books will be handed out during band class.  Any additional books can be signed-out by students in either band room. Return all money collected to the fundraising boxes in either band room. Please make checks payable to CVHS Band Boosters. Please return any unsold books to either band room.  MAKE SURE BOOKS ARE CLEARLY MARKED WITH STUDENT'S NAME WHEN RETURNED. Students are responsible for any non-returned books.  If you have any questions contact Lisa Kutskill for more information.

Parisian was such a good fundraiser for us, we are going to do it again! The more you participate, the more you earn! As with the last time, Parisian stores are participating in a community day event on November 13, 2010 that will allow us to raise funds to support our Instrumental music program. By selling coupon booklets, Parisian gets good advertisement and traffic in the store and we get to keep 100% of the money raised!!
Each Coupon Booklet Includes:
  - $10 off coupon featuring minimal exclusions( good on clearance-yellow dots this time)  You’re getting paid back twice the amount of your $5 donation
  - 30% off early bird coupon- good till10am
  - six additional savings coupons
  - exclusive Community Day Bonus offers
  - three amazing web exclusive offers
100% of the $5 coupon booklet price for each one sold is ours to keep! The more you sell… the more $$ you make!  Contact Susan Durlock at 1beachmama@gmail.com for more information.

In conjunction with the CVHS spring band concert we rafflle off gift baskets.  We are always looking for basket donations. Feel free to be creative!  The raffle is being held on school property so no baskets can contain alcohol.  The baskets should arrive by 6:30pm the evening of the concert. Each basket should be wrapped in cellophane, so that the contents are viewable and labeled with a short description (ie. “summer fun”, “golf” etc.).  The baskets will be displayed in the auditorium lobby.  Once you purchase raffle tickets you can “vote” for your a basket that you'd like to win by putting a raffle ticket in the basket in front of it.  Raffle drawings will be made during the intermissions after each band performs. All funds raised from the sale of raffle tickets contribute to the General Fund.

This is an easy way to raise funds for the Band Program. With strong participation, there is a potential to raise $8,000 for our band with each 3-digit match we run. Families are asked to sell a group of ten calendars. They are on sale for just $10 each. Matching is based on the Michigan Lottery Daily 3 (evening draw). If the number at the top of your calendar matches the Daily 3, then you win the prize stated on that day (either $50, $75, or $100). Sell calendars to friends, families, co-workers, etc. Anyone can play!! Please contact Karen Pietryka for more information. All funds from this fundraiser contribute directly to the General Fund.

DISCLAIMER: This fundraiser is in no way related to or affiliated with the Michigan Lottery. The Daily 3 is only used within this fundraiser as a fair way to draw numbers.

Sale of Achatz Pies contribute to the selling students Student Accounts. 

Sale of Otis Spunkmeyer Cookie Doughs contribute to the selling students Student Accounts.

Contributions from the sale of Pizza Kits are deposited into Student Accounts for participating students.

During the Band Holiday Concert miniture Holiday Trees that have been decorated by some of our more crafty & artistic boosters will be raffled off to lucky band families. Raffle tickets for the trees will be available only at the holiday concert, so come out to the performance and purchase a raffle ticket!  Sale of raffle tickets contrinute to the General Fund.

Our Band and Guard students ask for donations from the patrons at local area businesses. We need students to staff these locations as well as parents to be at the school during the tag day hours to help count money and drive students to and/or from locations as needed. We need two parents at the school as well as two students at each location during the week-ends shifts.  Funds raised via Tag Day are added to the Band General Fund.  
 
During Band Camp each student needs to sign up for a minimum of one shift there will be student sign up sheets posted in the Band rooms. Students will need to wear their red CV polos.
