Marching bands fall fundraisers

It's that time of year again! Every group imaginable is fundraising for their team or organization. Along with those groups is the John I. Burton Raider marching band with one of their longest running fundraisers: fruit. In addition to their annual fruit fundraiser, they will be selling several different items from a new company.

As opposed to the usual fruit fundraiser, the band will be selling from a new company. We will be selling: grapefruit, apples, pears, tangerine, tangelos, and many other oranges with the exception of red navels. The fruit will be ordered at the end of October and should arrive around the beginning of December. The fruit will be delivered to John I. Burton and then delivered to you.

For the band's other large fundraiser they will be selling several different items. These items include: cookie dough, in tubs or pre-pressed; cheesecake; dips; cheese balls; soups; pretzels and pretzel items; chocolate; pizza; candles; and more. Like the fruit fundraiser, we will order at the end of October and everything will be delivered near the beginning of December. Everything will be delivered to John I. Burton and then delivered to you.

Support your John I. Burton Raider marching band! The deadline for orders and payment is October 31. To place an order, contact a band member or the band director Cassandra Butler.
