Scrips cards available

I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed, but apparently the year is speeding by quickly, and the holidays are almost upon us! Yikes!  In order to help you with that, we are once again offering our Scrips mail order gift cards.  The form to use to order these cards has been emailed to families.  The deadline to order these cards is Nov. 30.  They will be delivered within a week, so approximately Dec. 7th. 

Scrips cards are physical gift cards that can be purchased as gifts or for your own use.  Various retailers and restaurants team up with Scrips to offer non-profit organizations a rebate on gift cards purchased to their stores.  Each business offers a different rebate amount, which is credited to our Orchestra program at the time of purchase.  We generally put in an order for these cards around the holidays and near the end of the school year, as people prepare for graduations and weddings throughout the summer months.

Again, Scrips forms must be turned into Mrs. Jonas by Nov. 30! We hope you'll take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to help our Orchestra program, as well as maybe take a few items off your to-do list.  If you have any questions about Scrips cards or the ordering process, please feel free to contact Lisa Birdwell.
