Cookie Dough Delivery on Thursday 11/10/22

If you sold any cookie dough or other perishable items, they will be delivered to campus on Thursday November 10th sometime during the day. Please plan to pick up your items by the end of the school day, as they are perishable and will thaw as they sit. As the seller, you are responsible for making final delivery, and you need to make sure you don’t ruin the product due to spoilage. We will contact everyone when the deliveries arrive. 

GSTOB Volunteers Needed! (Orchestra Students / Adults Wanted)

Please sign up to help at the upcoming Golden State Tournament of Bands. We have several areas of responsibility, including managing the traffic flow for the parking lots for school buses and band trucks/trailers and running the concession stand inside the stadium. This is extra help in addition to the normal show tasks of feeding the band and pushing the pit. Golden State Tournament of Bands is a large fundraiser for our program. Please take a look at the sign up and see where you can help. https://www.charmsoffice.com/charms/volunteerR.asp?s=clovwhsb&v=5587156

Marching Band Trip Forms 

Marching Band students were supposed to turn in trip forms on Friday 10/21. While most students turn them in on time, many students still have yet to turn in forms. We need EVERY student to turn in a completed trip form so we can plan our travel details for the rest of the season. Additionally, trip payments are due by 11/4, and can be submitted via cash, check, or through CHARMS. Full details of how to make a payment are available on your trip form.
