CHOIR PATRON DRIVE EXTENDED!
The Choir Boosters Board met last week and decided to extend the Choir Patron Drive.  The new final turn-in date will be Friday, November 30.  The board hopes to allow additional time for those students who haven't had an opportunity to work toward the goal of $100 in patron contributions and give additional time to those students who are trying to win top patron collector prizes (and you'll have a chance to see additional family over Thanksgiving Break).

Patron Drive Info

• Each OE singer is working toward collecting $100 in parton contributions
• Patrons can be parents, friends family, church members, community members, business owners etc.
• Students may collect patron contributions and turn-in to Cates or mailed to Olathe East
• Patrons wishing to receive a receipt or who would like to arrange additional recognition for their contribution may contact Cates: dcatesoe@olatheschools.org

All patron contributions turned in by students must be turned-in in a sealed envelope clearly marked with the student name, Patron Drive and the amount

All patron contributions collected over $100 will go to that choir student's individual account (to pay for choir related costs--trips, tshirts etc.)

See the previous blog post for to copy and paste the text of a sample letter/email to send to potential patrons.  Simply update the text with your name.

SAMPLE PATRON LETTER

Hello From Olathe East Choir’s

We are so excited to start another great year, and are off to a great start learning new music!  For those of you who have not heard we have many new things at OE, starting with our new director of choirs, Dustin Cates!

This year we are starting a choir booster club for the first time ever at Olathe East.  Our goals are to help raise money to fund activities for the choirs and our members.  We will also use this to help some who might find it financially challenging to be involved.  It’s important to us to help those who need it.  

So we are starting or Hawk Choirs Sponsor program this year which I hope you will consider taking part in.  Rather than selling overpriced fundraising items and only keeping a small part of the profits, we are asking for sponsors so that 100% of the money given will stay right here at Olathe East and go directly to the choir.  I have included a brochure which details the sponsorship levels for you to consider.  We have a lofty goal to raise $10,000, so anything you can do would be greatly appreciated.  When you donate, your name will be mentioned in our concert programs. AND, if the donation is large enough, I may come over and sing you a tune personally to say thanks!

I really appreciate you reading this and hope you will consider helping us out!

Musically yours,

2012 Dist/State Audition Cut Results

Outstanding Concert!

Choir Students & Parents,

Wow!  What a top-notch Fall Concert!  I was extremly proud of each performance on Wednesday and hope that each choir student was as well.

As we began this school year together we decided to work to create an inclusive environment.  One where each of us saw ourselves not only as part of our individual choir class, but as a part of something greater--choir at Olathe East.  We decided that our singing was for us as individulas, but most importantly for something greater than ourselves.  We work to dim an empasis on lables and levels and work for our best.  We aim for our music to move, reflect, touch and cause others to grow.  Our Fall Concert was our first opportunity to allow our music to speak all of those things and we are off an outstanding start!

Thank you for your hardwork and for singing for something greater than yourselves.  If this is where we begin I can't wait to see where we end up next!

Enjoy your long weekend and I'll see you Monday!

Peace.
Cates
