IGive Fundraiser - Attached is the link (http://www.igive.com/DHHSBand) to the IGive Fundraiser. Please take a moment and go to this link, register, download the toolbar and Dixie Band is already listed as your dedicated charity. After doing so, anytime you go online and visit any store affiliated with the IGive program, whether you purchase anything or not, the band will receive money. This is a free fundraiser that will hopefully make us money without any work involved. Also, if you shop at any of the stores, they will also give us a percentage of your purchase. There is no extra fee added to your purchase, you only buy items at the price the establishment is selling them to everyone else. With Christmas coming soon, this is a great time to be buying gifts and hopefully a great time for the band to make some "FREE" money.  You may send this message to anyone you know and request that they also help us out. It doesn't cost anything and it only takes a couple minutes of your time. After that, you never have to worry about it. Everytime you visit a site that is a part of the program, it automatically puts you through the IGive program as long as you have just downloaded the toolbar. Also, the program is not connected to any ONE credit card number. It is connected to your e-mail, so you can pay anyway you prefer.

Pancake Breakfast with Santa Fundraiser - The band would like to do a pancake Breakfast with Santa as a fundraiser this year. I have spoken with Ms Banta and the only Saturday in December that is available is December 20. I know this is awfully close to Christmas but is the best we can do, unless someone has another place in mind that we could use to have it?   Before I can commit to the date I would like to know if anyone would be able to help during that day, even if it is only an hour or two. I am only planning on doing this from 8 until 12 so we would need to set up around 7 and clean up until about 1. I would like to have the kids help as well, maybe be elves, help clean tables, etc. Please e-mail me back to let me know if you would be available to help at all. My e-mail is devore246@fuse.net. Thanks - Sara
