Welcome to the Greenfield Central High School Instrumental Music Boosters website
During September, we were planning to attempt to win a $25,000 grant. Pepsi only takes the first 1,000 on-line applications each month and, despite the midnight efforts of Dianne Hoover, we did not make the cut-off. Hang onto the cards, received at the Practice-a-thon, as we plan to try again in October.
The Cheese and Sausage Sale is one of our larger fundraisers and we need everyone's participation to keep fees down.
The high school band members received their sales packets on Tuesday, August 31st and the junior high
band members received their sales packets on Wednesday, September 1st, so please take them to family,
neighbors, co-workers and anyone else to try and sell items.
The orders ONLY are due in the Music office by Wednesday, September 15th. Product
pick-up will be at G-CHS on Thursday, October 7th and all money is due in the Music office by Friday, October 22nd.

Fundraisers
On September 9th and
20th, Arby's will
donate 20% of sales from 5:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. with each flyer submitted
with an order. Click
here for the
September 9th flyer and click
here for the September 20th flyer.
Each page contains four flyers,
please print them and pass them out to friends, family, co-workers and neighbors.
Email people and refer them to this page, so they
can print the flyers, attach the flyers to emails and forward.
The August 16th fundraiser raised an estimated $300.00. A big thank you to Tina Bailey and her staff at
Arby's. Thanks to everyone that supported the fundraiser and to the students for passing out flyers.
Is your student's account overdue? Please send in your balance to the address on your statement. Do you need more time or to setup an alternative payment plan? Contact Rene' Guy or Rob Carpenter to let them know your situation and how you plan to catch-up. If necessary, we can provide an "Agreement to Pay" form for an alternative pay plan. All emails and conversations are kept confidential and it will avoid further action by the boosters to collect the overdue amount.
Ways to reduce your fees:
Remember to participate in the fundraisers that benefit your student's account.
Create and send out student sponsorship letters. Sample letters are on the "Student Sponsorship" page.
Buy SCRIP cards (gift cards) and use them everyday. Places like Walgreen's, Wal-Mart, Shell, Applebee's, Cracker Barrel, Bob Evans, Arby's and Marriott hotels to name a few. Plan ahead, order your cards and help pay some of your fees. Go to our "Fund Raising" page to see how to order.
