​Ski and Board Concession Oct. 1-2

It's time for our annual fundraiser again! Through your donations each year, we run a very successful concession stand at the CHS Ski and Board Sale. This is a great opportunity to put more money into our kids' band and chorus programs.
Please help us out with donations of food, baked goods and supplies, and volunteering if you can. Here is a link to our SignUp Genius:

You can drop off donated items anytime during the week at Angela's house at 126 Edgewood Drive, or on Saturday directly to us at the high school between 8 and 9am. Due to the Ski Swap having so many items being dropped off, we need to keep our donations separate, so please don't leave anything at the school offices. Thank you!
Thanks so much, Marie Bouffard and Angela Zwonik​​

CSD Band Programs Accepting Used Instrument Donations

s it been a while since you played that old clarinet or French horn? Is your old instrument taking up valuable space or gathering dust in the closet? Friends of Colchester Music hopes you will consider giving your old instrument new life and enriching the life of a young Colchester music student by donating your old guitar, brass or woodwind instrument to the Colchester School District (CSD) band programs.

“Extra instruments are tough to come by and they are expensive…we have a small pool of extra instruments that we are able to share among the three school district band programs,” said CMS Band Director Emily Desautels. “Having a few more instruments would be very helpful not only for instructing students, but also in case an instrument is left at home on practice day, gets damaged or, most importantly, if a student wants to play an instrument but lacks the means to rent one.”

The CSD music booster group Friends of Colchester Music is now accepting donations of any brass or woodwind instruments. To donate an instrument to the CSD band programs,
please contact Friends of Colchester Music at friendsofcolchestermusic@gmail.com.
All donations are tax deductible.
