3) DECK THE HALLS: Pull out your Christmas decorations (you need to get them out of the attic anyway), put your name on the ones you want to keep, and bring them to the band hall. Then join us Friday evening for one of the most fun things we do, which is decorating the Paschal hallways.
4) SIGN UP TO HELP: Many hands make light work. And we have the students helping. Here's the master signup list for parents. (...if you haven't done your background paperwork yet, you can still work at market.)
5) COME TO THE MARKET: Please come with your Christmas shopping list, cruise the vendors' merchandise, and do all your shopping.
6) BUY COFFEE AND BUTTER BRAIDS: We will be selling Butter Braids and Java Joes Coffee at the gift market. They make great gift items.
