The Chamber of Commerce has contacted Music Boosters and is asking if the Orchestra / Band / Choir participants would sign-up for Waste Warriors this summer for Saturday, August 13th. Since the Athletic Boosters Club Car Wash is on Saturday, Aug 13th, we need the Music students to step up on Saturday!!
There will be someone at EW on Friday 6/17, during the lunch period. So please sign up they have lots of slots left!
Remember, you DO NOT have to be a member of the Junior Class in order to participate in this really fun summer opportunity. To get your friends and family signed up send an e-mail to 2011wastewarriors@comcast.net with your preferred dates and times.
