RIS Instrumental Dinner & Auction. We include: symphonic band, jazz band, marching band, color guard, drumline, orchestra, and percussion ensemble. Each group does 1-2 pieces, and between each group we open the silent auction. The auction then closes while a group is performing.<br /><br />We start the dinner portion at 6:00pm, but those who ordered togo plates can pick up as early as 5:30 or sooner.<br /><br />Since we include just about every ensemble, it's much easier to get everything donated from the spaghetti noodles all the way down to the table decor. Parents contact businesses to get auction items donated. We use our schools MPR which costs little to nothing--since our parents do the cooking at home, the food is satellited in and we just use the kitchen to heat and prepare some of the other dishes.<br /><br />Dinner includes: Spaghetti (meatballs optional), salad (with choices of dressings), dinner roll, cookies or cake, beverage, and more.<br /><br />We made over $2,000 profit last year because we had no out of pocket expenses. That's a lot for a Jr HS program! Having parents cook, serve, and donate saves! Your local grocery stores may donate Like ours did, if they know the cause!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />$2 - just to watch the show only<br /><br />Below is show and dinner:<br />$5 - to go plate<br />$7 - per plate if less than four in a party<br />$5 - family meal deal/per plate (if four or more)Matthew Smithhttp://reyburnbands.orgnoreply@blogger.com
