The order form must be returned by Friday, September 11th, no exceptions. The drinks available are
as follows: 24 1/2 litre bottles of Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Dr. Pepper, or Dsanani Water for $13.00. We

Attention
All Band Parents and Students
The Zachary High
School Bronco Band Boosters were approached by "Integrated Stadium Seating" regarding a possible fund raising offer for our group. This company
is a stadium seatback leasing and rental service provider for some of the nation's largest universities according to their
website. This year, they will begin providing seatbacks for LSU's Tiger Stadium.
The boosters have been offered fifty cents (0.50) for each seat installed in the stadium.
As of August 19th, over 5,000 seats have already been leased, which means $2,500.00. Additionally, we would be
responsible for staffing five booths inside Tiger Stadium to sell and service these chairs during the games. We will
be paid $500.00 per game ($100.00 per booth). There are seven home games so that would mean $3,500.00 for manning the
booths this season. At the end of the season, we will uninstall each chair and place them back in storage. We
will then be paid another fifty cents (0.50) for each seat uninstalled.
As you can see we have the potential to raise at least $8,500.00 this football season at LSU. The boosters
in attendance at the August 11th meeting have approved this fund raising offer. However, we need
your help!
We will need at least ten people
for every 1,000 seats to be installed. So far, that is at least fifty people. This can be band students, parents,
family, friends, etc. The only thing we ask is that small children not participate. A 9/16" socket set
and wrenches will be provided, but, you may also utilize a battery powered drill with a socket set attachment. No holes
shall be drilled into any stadium seats.
Saturday,
September 5th has been designated as the day we will install the seats. The earlier we can begin,
the cooler it will be, and the sooner we will finish. We plan on arriving around 6:30 a.m. at Tiger Stadium and starting
the seat installation process immediately thereafter. We are tentatively going to begin on the east side of the stadium.
We will provide lunch and should be reimbursed by Integrated Stadium Seating.
The drinks will also be provided by the boosters, but you are welcome to bring you own if you desire. Several water
coolers may also be available.
During each game, we will need
at least 4 people per booth, especially at the beginning of the season. Please look at your schedule
and sign up where you can! Please reply to mwmusselman@bellsouth.net or call Mike at 241-3602 and let us know when you can help. Please leave
a message if I am unable to answer the phone when you call.
The
seating install date is September 5th.
The LSU football
home games are: September 12th, 6 p.m. (Vanderbilt)
September 19th, 6 p.m. (UL Lafayette)
October 10th, 7 p.m. (Florida)
October 24th, 7 p.m. (Auburn)
October 31st, 7 p.m. (Tulane)
November 14th 7 p.m. (Louisiana Tech)

Thanking you in
advance!

ADDITIONAL FUND RAISING HELP IS NEEDED!
The Zachary High School Band Boosters have been chosen to operate the concession
stands at all home varsity football games on the visitor's side. We will be responsible for stocking this venue
as we see fit. Our goal is to provide exceptional customer service as well as a hot meal choice for our visiting guests. We
will likely need plenty of help so please volunteer when you can!
In additional to the Friday night games
on the visitor's side, we will also be responsible for the concession stands on the home side for the home Freshman and
JV football games.
The scheduled dates for all of the football games can be found on our calendar: http://my.calendars.net/zhsbandofblue
These concession stand events are new territory for us, so we will be learning as we go. The exact number
of people required for these events are still up for debate. We will start with four people for the freshman games,
five people for the JV games, and at least six to eight people for the varsity (Friday) games.
Please e-mail Mike
Musselman at mwmusselman@bellsouth.net if you can assist us at any of these games. We will gladly sign you up! ZHS band members can work the
JV and Freshman football game concessions but obviously cannot work the Friday night games.
