| WELCOME TO THE ONLINE HOME OF THE FORT ZUMWALT WEST HIGH SCHOOL SILVER JAGUAR BANDS! |

Update to E-mail Distribution Attention all Band Booster members (a.k.a. parents of band students): First, many of you missed a great meeting on the 11th when a lot of information was discussed about the upcoming months leading to the next school year. VERY important information was provided about the band trip to the Alamo Bowl. Please attend next month on March 11th and get involved. Second, we are trying to update our list of e-mail addresses. If you are not receiving band information via e-mail, send a short message from that e-mail account to our Band Booster President, Stephanie Eggemeyer at sjegg@yahoo.com. Please include your student's name. (Updated February 12, 2010) |

TIPS Training for VWA Volunteers To all Band/Guard parents: It's almost time for Verizon Wireless Amphitheater to start another concert season. The FZW Band Boosters have three locations at the VWA where we (the volunteers) serve customers with food and beverages. When you volunteer for a shift, you earn $$$ toward your student's band account. With a band trip to San Antonio in December, we're hoping that a lot of parents will be interested in volunteering. For those interested, you MUST attend a free, one-day TIPS training class (certification lasts for 3 years). See below for further information: What: TIPS training class Where: FRANCIS HOWELL NORTH (LIBRARY) on Hackmann When: April 19, 21, 26, 28 May 3, 10 Time: Registration at 6:00. Class starts at 6:30 p.m. SHARP. *** The library can only accommodate 60 each night. Seating is first come first serve - no RSVPs. Although registration starts at 6:00, we recommend getting there earlier than that to secure yourself a seat. If you do attend, it is important that you let either Karen Johnson or Mark Bouknecht know that you completed the training so that your name can be added to the list of volunteers. *** You can contact either Karen Johnson at Karen-L-Johnson@CenturyTel.net or Mark Bouknecht at Mbouky@Charter.net for any questions.
