OFMA Update – November 29, 2010
Next Meeting – December 1, 2010, High School Choir Room
As mentioned in our last blog, two new fund-raisers have been planned to support the students in their fund-raising efforts for the New York Trip, a Christmas Tree Sale and a Hoagie Sale. Details for the Christmas Tree Sale have been posted on the blog, but we have received many questions. Hopefully the following will clarify a number of those questions and feel free to contact us at ofmamusic@gmail.com if you still have questions.
First about the Student Pre-Sales:
- Band and Choir Students were provided pre-sale order forms the week of Thanksgiving. The form is meant to track the students individual sales and should be turned into Judy Crandall or Tim Strelau by end of school, Friday, December 3, 2010. Students will receive credit for their personal sales via the order form sheet, trees can be paid for at time of pick-up, but the order must be registered on the form for the student to receive individual credit.
- A sign-up sheet for set-up on Friday and lot sales on Saturday and Sunday has been circulated to the Band and Choir Students. Students working a minimum shift of two hours will receive a portion of the sale proceeds for lot sales made on Saturday and Sunday.
- Additional order forms can be printed from the blog if necessary.
- Trees will be set-up on the lot for inspection and purchase.
- We will have many additional trees for sale, walk-ins on Saturday and Sunday will benefit the students working so keep chatting up our lot!
The following items would assist us in making the lot a success, items can be donated or if we can borrow them it would be much appreciated:
- Steel Fence Posts
- Post Driver
- Christmas Tree Lights (D-9)
- Temporary Fencing
- Bailing Twine (will not be returned)
- Propane Heater
Again, our next meeting is December 1, 2010, and we encourage active participation by members and non-members alike, so please drop in or send us your thoughts and ideas to ofmamusic@gmail.com.
Happy Holidays to All!!!
Regarding the upcoming NYC trip. After the deposit was given, we were told that the cost is up $35 because not enough students signed up. Multipled by the number of both Wind Ensemble and Chorale, that seems like a lot of money. How many students didn’t sign up?
I find it unprofessional to raise the cost, after deposits have been accepted.

I will forward your comments to the Music Director’s. This is a school function, therefore Olmsted Falls Music Association is not involved in the planning, arrangements or logistics.
