Updated 6/26/10

We have had several questions this year about the car wash process, slots available and student account credit process. Since this year is an out of state trip year and we are granting credit to student accounts, rules have been created to allow all students to have a fair opportunity to earn money towards their accounts if they wish, yet still make the amount earned to the student valuable. Any student is initially allowed to sign up for one 2 hour time slot on each Car Wash Day. All-day participants are not allowed in order to make room for other students who want to help and earn some money towards their accounts. However, on the day of the Car Wash, if there are still empty slots available, then a student (or parent) can work two or more slots as determined and allowed by the shift/day on site by the Committee Chairperson. So, if you want to work more than one shift, make sure to check with us on that day! We may very well need more people!

Once you arrive to the car wash location, it is extremely important you sign in. If you are scheduled to work a shift and are not there on time, someone else may be able to work your time slot in your place, as determined by the Committee Chairs on site. Please make sure you sign in legibly so we can give you credit for your work.

Account Credit Process: Overall car wash monies are split 75% to student accounts, 25% to band general fund. Each full 2 hour shift is worth one (1) credit. If you work 1 hour of a shift and then leave early, you will receive .5 credit. At the end of all three car washes, a dollar value for the credit will be determined based on 75% of total funds earned for all 3 car washes. We will then credit your student’s trip account for the value of their earned credits.

Please review the July sign up list and let us know when/where you would like to work. There is still plenty of room to sign up if you haven’t already and earn some money towards your trip account!!

You can notify us by email or phone number. Walgreen’s location: Barbara Gruener, gruenergang@sbcglobal.net or 832-605-7479. Wendy’s location: Stacey Cumming, scumming1@comcast.net or 832-287-8009.

Please contact us if you have any questions at all.
Thank you!

Being a chaperone is a great way to help the band members. As an added bonus you get admission into the games and competitions at no cost and transportation on the bus is free.

If you become a chaperone, please remember that you will need to wear a booster club polo or booster denim shirt to all chaperoned events. You can use last years if you are a returning booster. You can purchase shirts at registration or place an order at band website.

Please come by our booth at band registration on August 8th, 2-5pm.

YOU WILL NEED TO COME TO A CHAPERONE TRAINING MEETING BEFORE YOU CAN CHAPERONE GAMES AND CONTESTS DURING THIS MARCHING SEASON.  DATES WILL BE POSTED AT REGISTRATION.

Thank you,

Chaperone Co-Chairs: Maria Georgeton and April Patterson

Parents of Returning Band Students

Welcome to another exciting year of Mighty Mustang Band! As you have learned, being a part of the band has associated costs and volunteer commitments. The Mustang Band Booster Club (MBBC) raises money through registration fees, sponsorships and various fundraisers allowing our band and color guard students the best opportunity for success! Funding from FISD alone is not enough for the students to accomplish these goals each year.

Your registration fees and participation allow MBBC to support the Mustang Band to be the best in state! This year we are offering you the opportunity to create a payment plan that fits your budget if you do not wish to pay the fees in one payment at registration in August. We have broken down the fees into required and optional items. You can make payments monthly or bi-weekly. All membership fees are due by Band Registration on August 8^th. Registration will be held in the old Junior High Snack Bar from 2-5pm. Outlined below are the membership fees.
