ICE CREAM SOCIAL
BRING TICKET MONEY IN!  Our final fundraiser of the year:  an old-fashioned ice-cream social!  It will be on Thursday, May 17, from 4-6 pm, and will also feature the final performance of the Harmonics (beginning at 5:15 pm).    Tickets must be purchased by Wednesday and can only be purchased from Ms. K. 

Tickets cost $7, which gets guests 2 big scoops of ice cream and unlimited toppings.  If people complain that it is too much money, you can remind them that it *is* a fundraiser/performance AND...UNLIMITED TOPPINGS!!

Sign up to bring toppings!  http://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0e49aba82faa8-icecream

Harmonics: we will have a lunch rehearsal of your music on Monday, May 14.  Make sure that you have listened to the music before then and practiced it for yourself!

•A little biographical information, i.e. year in school, what student enjoys doing, hobbies, etc...
•A little "yearbook"-type message

the page unmistakably yours: collage, poem, drawings, stickers...whatever you want!

You can design it all online and print it out if you wish, or you can use the old-fashioned technique of glue and scissors.  There will be some free supplies for you to use if you wish, or you can provide your own paper/supplies.
