BREAKING NEWS!
The Marching Ironmen have been given the opportunity to staff the concession stand at the home football game Friday, October 2! This is an easy way to earn a lot of money for the band program. We will need at least 40 people to help prepare, sell, set up, and clean up in the concession stand on that Friday night beginning at 5pm.
Please contact Cheri Houldsworth (crhouldsworth@yahoo.com or 661.0784) or Phyllis McCluskey-Titus (pamcclu2@ilstu.edu or 661.2346) to volunteer today!

(Cheesecake, fruit, and Beef House rolls sales are the 'big three' of our fund raisers because they allow students to earn money for their own individual accounts. )
Students: Participation in fundraisers is expected. While the marching band not taking a large trip this year, we are making preparations for a major trip during the 2010-11 school year. WE NEED 100% PARTICIPATION from all students in order to participate in events on a national scale and perform in bigger venues. Seniors: we appreciate you being an example to the underclassmen.
