Taste of the Town

Coming up in December are our Taste of the Town and Winter Concert.

Thursday, December 4th
Taste of the Town: 6:00pm – 8:00pm
Winter Concert: 8:00pm
Clear Springs High School – Cafeteria

So what exactly is Taste of the Town you ask?  Well to start, it is considered the best fundraiser ever by many, if not all, of the people who attend, and it is our 2nd highest grossing fundraiser after the Rock-A-Thon.   At the event there will be approximately 20 different local restaurants that bring samples of their food.  With the purchase of a ticket, you will be able to get samples from each of these restaurants which will easily make up a full meal (you will not need to eat a separate dinner this evening.) Check out the following list of the restaurants which have committed to attending.

• Cheesecake Factory
• Brewingz
• Slices and Ices
• Chili’s
• San Lorenzo Mexican Restaurant
• Panera Bread
• Berrylicious
• Carl’s Jr.
• Kroger
• Longhorn Steakhouse
• Cakes by Jula
• Red River Barbeque & Grill
• Which Wich Superior Sandwiches
• Genghis Grill
• Pei Wei Asian Diner
• Olive Garden

So where can you get the tickets that will allow you to eat food from all of the above restaurants all in the same meal, and how much are they?  The tickets are being sold by the band students and are $15.  Five tickets were distributed to the students to sell on Friday, November 7th and any students who need additional tickets can get them from the directors.  All money and any unsold tickets need to be returned by Wednesday, November 19th.

As with many of the other fundraisers that we do, we can raise the most funds if tickets are sold to not only your own family but also to friends, neighbors and co-workers. So lets all do our best to make this evening a success.   Students don’t forget to purchase a ticket for yourself (or have your parents purchase it for you) in order to partake in all that the restaurants have to offer.  Students will need to eat before 7:00 PM.

UNSOLD TICKETS MUST BE RETURNED! E-mail cshsbandtasteofthetown@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Instead of having a Silent Auction during Taste of the Town as we have done in the past we will be having a fun raffle! Raffle tickets will sell for $1 each or 6 tickets for $5.00.  You will have a chance to win any one of the raffle baskets listed below.
