Booster Blast

Dear Boosters:

Tech Week started March 6th! Rehearsals will run until 7:00pm. 

Snacks:

The Boosters will provide snacks and water, but students are asked to bring a refillable water bottle or bring their own beverage. Snack breaks will be at 5:00pm.

Volunteer Opportunities

We need parent help with tech week snacks, concessions, and ticket sales the days of the shows.

Tech Week Snacks:

Thank you to Will Shepherd, Joyce McKenzie, Hope Kabik, Gasa Anderson, and Jessica Brauer for volunteering this week.

We need volunteers for the following week too. We recommend 2 parents to set up and distribute snacks on those days. The cast and crew will break around 5:00pm, so parents must be there at 4:45pm to set up.

If your child has any food allergies, a substitute snack will be provided. Email or text Linda Schenkel at jesseschenkel@icloud.com or 301-968-5673.
