First Disney Payment OVERDUE

The first payment for the Disney trip was due September 10, 2009. This trip is NOT a done deal. Mr. Lovell will make a determination if there are enough students to go on the trip based on how many deposits have been made. So far the number is low! PLEASE SEND IN YOUR DEPOSITS TODAY, it is not too late!

Please mail your check for $300 (made payable to BHS Music Boosters) to Burlington High School Music Boosters Association, PO Box 1052, Burlington, MA 01803. If you have any questions about the trip or the deposits, you may contact Donna Gregorio at burlgregs@yahoo.com.

Also, we are still in need chaperones (those deposits are also due)…please contact Donna Gregorio at burlgregs@yahoo.com if you are interested.


First Football Game TONIGHT

The first football game of the season is tonight, September 11, 2009, in Billerica. Band members should be at the high school at 5:15 pm for the bus to Billerica which departs at 6:00 pm. Game time is 7:00 pm. The game is at the Marshall Middle School, 15 Floyd St., Billerica. The game is NOT at Billerica HS.

Reminder: Game date change

The correct date for the second football game is Sat., 9/19/09, 7:00 against Arlington at home. It was changed from the original date because it conflicted with the BHS Open House (9/17/09). Pass the word!

At our first General Boosters meeting held this week, the following fund raising plans were approved: Benefit Disney Concert (Sat, Nov 7, 2009); “Lion King” ticket sales; Raffle Calendar; Magnetic memo board with advertisements; Halloween parade Walk A Thon; Movie Night at BHS auditorium; Concession sales at various events (including football games); “Friends” of the Boosters. Stay tuned for more details!
