Car Wash Update


The Car Wash fundraiser is quickly approaching, Saturday September 12th. We need all money for ticket sales to date turned in as soon as possible if you're done selling. Please remember, checks only. No cash. You still have until Thursday to sell the tickets. But if you have them to turn in this Tuesday before the Tuesday night's marching band rehearsal or the Booster meeting, we will be taking the ticket money and any unsold tickets.

We also need 4 parents to sign up per shift to help with the car wash: 9:30 - 12, 11:30 - 2:00, and 1:30 - 4:00. Please email Randy Strebe if you are able to help out. Also, encourage your student to sign up to help the day of the car wash. There is a sign-up board in the band room for the students. It should be fun!

Please contact Randy Strebe 916-934-8278, or email rstrebe@pacbell.net for questions.

Folsom Gourd and Arts Festival


The Music Boosters are partnering with the Folsom Patrons of the Arts in hosting a wine tasting event at the Folsom Gourd and Arts Festival on September 26th and 27th. Wine tasters will receive a wine glass to take home that is hand-painted by local artists. The Boosters will receive a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the wine tasting wristbands.

We are in need of volunteers to assist in checking id's and wristbands on the days of the event. We're also looking for donated clear, unchipped wine glasses. If you'd like to clean out your cupboard, please bring donated wine glasses to the first General Meeting coming on September 8th. If you're unable to attend the meeting or would like to volunteer for this event, contact Lorie Walton at president@folsommusc.org.
