The Band and Choir Parents is the "Booster" group for the
Lisbon Public School Music Department. The group is in charge of the
Annual Spaghetti Supper, the Dinner and Dessert Concerts,
and helps with the performance trip that is taken every three years.
(next trip in the summer of 2013)
In the past this group has helped with lunches for music groups when we travel
as well as providing funds for special events and concerts that the music students attend.
Part of the success of the Music Department is due to the fact that we
have taken an active roll in helping out. I hope we can continue that this year.
We have lots to do and if everyone lends a hand it doesn't become an
overwhelming task. If you are called to help with concessions, please say Yes.

*If you do not receive e-mail updates from Mr. Monilaws please send him a
note at john.monilaws@sendit.nodak.edu and he will add you to the list.

You should have received a letter in regards to our performance Tour in 2013.
If not, please call Mr. Monilaws at the school.

Old Cell phone and Ink Cartridges are still being collected as a fund raiser.
Boxes are located in the HS office.

Teal's Market has generously offered to donate
receipt proceeds to the music department. All you need
to do is send your Super Value receipts to any Lisbon
music teacher. If you want your receipt proceeds to go
to the music department, please send them with your
student. It's that easy! Thank you for helping our
music department!
