It's that time - our first (of two) Boston Butt sale of the year! This is a great fundraiser for the band and we ask that every student try to sell five. These are truly the best butts many have tasted and many folks are repeat customers. Also, please be creative in getting the word out. Neighborhood facebook pages, your personal facebook page, leaving some forms at parents' work if allowed... Also, if you can offer delivery, that might be an incentive to some. Again, be creative! Please see the attached form for all information. VENMO can be used for payment and in that case, the form is not required. Scan the code and put information that is requested on the form. Thank you all for your support! ![]()
