Butter Braid Sale Kickoff Planned for March 23


Our next major fundraising initiative will launch next week Monday. During the lunch hour, Jim Knobloch of J & M Fundraising will meet with student travelers to present information about their featured product, the Butter Braid. He will also have free samples to eat, so you don't want to miss this one!

Students will be able to pick up order forms and promotional materials to share with potential customers. Students will have until April 20 to collect orders and payments. This allows studenst to gather orders over the Easter holiday. Products will be delivered May 1 at 3:40 PM. Since it is important that your orders remain frozen, you must be able to pick them up by 4:00 PM on May 1.

Both D-Day Trip and Italy travelers are eligible to participate in this fundraiser. For D-Day travelers, proceeds from this sale will benefit your contribution to the group's general fund (unless you have already met your obligation). If you are unsure how much you need to raise yet for the general fund, please see me for an updated balance. Proceeds raised by Italy travelers will benefit their individual trip accounts.

Note to D-Day Travelers: I hope to make this the LAST major fundraising effort for our general fund. Save for candy sales, this will be your last opportunity to meet your obligation to the general fund (which is approximately $67, but I'll have updated figures at our next meeting), so please plan accordingly.
