What are we doing? • Welcome to the 2014 Practice-A-Thon! • What is the Practice-A-Thon you ask? • A Practice-A-Thon is a 3-Phase Fundraiser. • Phase 1: Get Pledges • Phase 2: Practice • Phase 3: Collect Money and Earn Prizes • It’s awesome because we, the band get to keep all the money! • Awesome sauce!
Why are we fundraising? • The funds we raise will go toward: • Sheet Music • Lesson Scholarships • Food/Treats at Special Events (like Chic-fil-a breakfasts and Cici’s Pizza etc…) • Buses/Transportation to places like Sandy Lake, NRH2O, etc… • Entry fees for things like Sandy Lake, NRH2O, etc…
Phase 1: Get Pledges • Phase 1 Starts on Sept. 29 until Oct. 5. • People can donate to you in two ways: • They can pledge $ per minute of practice (lets say they pledge 10¢ per minute—if you practice 200 minutes then they owe you $20). • Or they can donate a flat rate to you (they just give you money). • You can ask Family, Friends, and other people that you and your family knows to donate.
Donation Forms • Take a look at the donation form in your packet. • Step one! Write your name where it goes. • Step two…write in what instrument you play. • Now Dennis is ready to go ask family members, friends, neighbors he knows, and other people he and his family know for donations!

More Donation Forms • Dennis lives near his grandmother, so he walks over to her house. • Dennis: *knocks on the door* • Grandma: *opens the door* Oh Dennis! It’s so good to see you! • Dennis: Hi Grandma! I’d like to tell you about a fundraiser my school band is doing. • Grandma: Ok! • Dennis: We are having a practice-a-thon. I’m asking you to sponsor me for each minute I practice next week. For example, if you promise 20¢ per minute and I practice 100 minutes then you’ll give me $20 to donate to the band. Or if you’d like to donate just a flat amount that would be great too! • Grandma: Sounds good! Put me down for 20¢ per minute! • Dennis: Thanks Grandma!
