Upcoming Fundraisers

Tai Pan Trading Company

Just in time for Holiday shopping, here is another new opportunity to raise money for our general fund! NO SELLING required! We will be giving away discount cards worth $5 off of a $25 purchase! For every card that is filled out (one card per household) and used at Tai Pan Trading Company in Rancho Cucamonga , the band will receive $5.00! If EVERY student gives out 5 cards that are used at the store, we would earn over $5000! There is also a line on the card to write the students name. The top 3 students who have the most cards used at the store will win a prize! We will have a kick off event at the store from 6pm to 8pm on November 24^th, the cards will expire 30 days after our event date. Cards will be available at the November 12^th parent meeting and distributed to the students as soon as possible.

Candles

A new opportunity this season! We will be selling candles from Celebrating Home! This is also a 100% student account fundraiser! Sell the candles for $10, and $5 goes to your student account!

Here is some information about the candles: They are 85% soy that is grown here and they are poured here in United States . The fragrance is all the way through the candle. Wicks are cotton - no lead. Keeping the wicks cut to 1/4 inch and burning for a minimum of 2 1/2 hours at a time (completely liquifying across the top), they will get at least 65 hours of burn time out of them!

Flyers will be available at the November 12^th parent meeting (as well as some fragrance samples!) and forms will be going home with the students after practice on November 17^th. Orders are due no later than December 3^rd! Products will need to be picked up after school on December 16^th.

As always for fundraisers, checks need to be made payable to UHRB, write your student account number on the check, and student name and contact phone number need to be on the order forms!
