BELDING BAND BEAT

We’re going to Disney World!!
​
Tuesday evening the Band Boosters approved the Band trip to Florida for Spring Break of 2022. After much discussion, survey results, and looking at alternative trip options, the consensus was Florida is the best destination. 

What does that mean now?
I will be working closely with Thornapple Travel to create the best trip for our students. Over the next several weeks, more and more details will be available and shared with both parents and students. We will set a date for a trip informational meeting and begin locking in those that are interested in attending, both student and chaperone. Once a working itinerary is organized, Mr. Ruble will present the trip details to the School Board for approval. 


Can I start paying for the trip?
Soon there will be a payment portal through Thornapple Travel where you can begin making direct trip payments. For now, you may add funds to your students’ Band Booster student account that will then be applied towards the trip. Our goal is to keep the overall trip cost near the $1,000 mark. This is also dependent on the number of trip participants. 

How can I pay for the trip?
The Band Boosters will be ramping up the fundraiser game over the next year to help each and every student raise funds for the trip. We are currently still selling chocolates, $25 per box is added to your student account. If you have ideas for fundraisers, please let us know! We are always looking for new ideas.

Take a look at the company that is organizing our trip. They have a posted refund policy as I know that is a major concern with our current state of affairs. 

If you have any questions about this upcoming adventure, please reach out to me. I want to make sure everyone is as informed as possible. New information will be coming soon as we work through the initial planning process.   

-Mr. Ruble
