Congratulations to all the Charger Band members who participated in our annual Rock-A-Thon.  As of Saturday we had brought in $23,295 dollars.  With the envelopes and online donations that are still coming in, we will push the threshold of $25,000!  We also had over 70% of all the band members participate, which is the most ever!

Congratulations to our top 3 fundraisers:
  1. Emily Thibodeaux at $1,000, who took home an octopus hat, Whataburger for a year, the first class experience on our spring trip (pending her trip eligibility), AND will be designing drill for one of our season finally game half time shows.
  2. Gilberto Torres at $890, who took home a dragon hat, $50 Amazon gift card, a Whataburger coupon pack and will be DJ for a game.
  3. Samantha Study at $800 who took home a butterfly hat, $25 Amazon gift card and a Whataburger coupon pack
Congratulations to our top section:
  1. Our top fundraising section, the Color Guard, will enter our “After Party” free of charge!  They averaged $181.84 per student in their section!  Well done, Color Guard!

Honorable mention also goes to the Saxophone section. They had an average of $178.16 per student and almost 90% of their section participating!!!!!  It was neck and neck all the way to the end!

A BIG thank you goes out to Laura Santos, Roxanne Green, the student leaders, and the rest of the Rock-A-Thon committee for all of their hard work securing prizes, decorating the commons, and planning our most fun Rock-A-Thon ever!

After Party:

Friday, August 19
9:00AM-11:00AM
Bay Area Raceway
3825 Gulf Fwy, Dickinson, TX 77539

The After Party is only for those students who participated in the Rock-A-Thon.  Tickets are free for the Color Guard and Top 3 earners.  Tickets are $5 for students who made their $250 goal and $10 for everyone else who participated in Rock-a-thon. Tickets include unlimited go cart rides, free play on video games, and free play on pool table/air hockey, etc.  If you want to play the games that give out tokens, you will need to bring extra $ for that. We will have a few drinks and snacks there, however, if you want to bring your own drinks, food or snacks, that is OK as Bay Area Raceway allows us to bring food.
