Fundraising

Today is the day of my favorite fundraiser of the year. It is the 3rd annual preview concert. No we don't charge money to hear the kids play, but we do feed people hamburgers so we charge them $5 to eat. We also have a dessert auction. One year we did a silent auction and it went over pretty well, last year we had a band parent unwillingly volunteer to be our auctioneer and this year we have a local auctioneer coming out. I have heard rumors that this certain auctioneer gets a lot of money for pies and desserts. It should be fun to watch the entertainment if not only the kids but of the auctioneer raising money for our kids. I will definitely update after everything and on my way out of town to give an update on how successful we were. 

Well the preview concert is over at least for me and our dog for one more year. Not nearly as hot as in the past, but still warm. Our dog had fun seeing everyone and begging for food that as soon as we got home he crashed on the floor. He is still in that spot as I type this. If he didn't have to go to his house so we could go on our weekend away he might just sleep there. From what I understand we were very successful and I will have the figures someday. The kids sound great. Even though we are brass heavy that is play. They sound great.
