Like Girl Scout cookies, this sale is based on pre-orders. Forms and information are available in the Band Room. The Citrus Sale is our largest fundraiser! Last year we sold over 1,580 boxes of citrus fruit and made a PROFIT of over $20,000! Please help us make this year’s sale even more successful! As the sale benefits everyone, we ask that all band students please sell at least 5 boxes.
Students can access their on-line sales by visiting www.ifundraise.com/member and entering their six-digit personal ID#, which was distributed in class.
If you are interested in purchasing a box to donate, please make your purchase and e-mail Ms. Kluga the information. YHS Band parent Karen Menduni will be helping organize and deliver these donated boxes.
