As part of our Swing Dance, we hold a really amazing raffle. Each year we ask families and local businesses for prize donations, which are then organized into themed baskets. Are you interested in helping with the raffle? Here is how:
1. Each year we have a “grand prize.” For the past bunch of years, a local family very generously donated 4 Knicks tickets – but now that family has graduated and moved on. Is there anyone in our current YHS Band Family that has a connection that could be used? Some ideas (grand prize, and otherwise) from our raffle committee are:
a. Tickets to concerts or sporting events
b. A weekend away at a timeshare
c. Personal chef for an evening dinner party
d. College essay help / tutoring help
e. Any other business offering or idea
2. If you do have a business contact that would be willing to support our event, a letter is attached (on official YHS Band letterhead) outlining the donation process.
3. The raffle committee is also looking for the following basket wrapping supplies:
a. Shrink wrap bags (L/XL, can be found at AC Moore, Michael’s, Dollar Store at JV Mall
b. Bows
c. Curling ribbons
d. Crinkle cut paper shred (ex. “Deco Shred”, Wrap N Style”)
e. Metallic foil shred filler
Any of the above items would be greatly welcomed and very helpful! Please send all items into school with your student by Friday 1/25. THANK YOU!
