HELP
WANTED……. We have a
fantastic Winterguard Organization which practices several times a
week. These young ladies put many hours of hard work into this
program, unfortunately our competitions are all in Minneapolis. We
are estimating the expense per participant (travel, costume, drill, equipment,
circuit membership fee) at about $500 per student. The members
plan on doing some fund raising, but past experience has proven that we will
fall short. We have some students who have been attending practices
faithfully, but realize financially they won’t be able to afford
it. At this time we are hoping to find sponsors – not to just hand
money over, but to provide these members with jobs to earn their
way. If you are willing to help us out – please contact Mr.
Kroeger at brett.kroeger@k12.sd.us
