This fall season has proven to be another great year for the Band Boosters in support of our Littlestown High School and Maple Avenue Middle  school football  programs.The LHS Marching Band as well as all the music programs throughout the LASD.

 

The concession stand is a monster at times to control and stay on top of.  It brings a wide range of demands and considerations to manage.  Yet for the parents who were able to find time to work it  and participate in it, a neat social element of fun is quickly realized.  Later, a sense of pride and stewardship is fostered along the way eitht the knowledge that you are helping to make a difference.  Special thank you to April Glaeser and  Denise Troup who always made sure it was stocked, open and ready for business for each game.  We could not have done it without you.  On top of everything else going on this year, on Saturday October 4th we renewed our support  for our Festival of Bands Outdoor competition, by hosting a 2008 Cavalcade of Bands Competition at Littlestown Memorial Stadium.  The concession stand was a critical and vital part of making that night  a huge sucess!   We thank all the bands that visited Littlestown and honored us with their talents that evening.

 

To the dozens and dozens and dozens of Littlestown parents that came together to make this fall season an outstanding sucess.  I tip my hat. Thank you.  The service you provided and the time you donated are a rare and valued act of kindness, And, year after year, it is why our organization is so successful.

 

There are all kinds of activities on the calender coming up in the very near future.  We have championships occuring on November 8Th in HersheyPA.  On Friday November 14th, we are hosting a post-season party at the YMCA, and baked goods are encouraged and welcome.

 

December 1st is our "Dinner Out" family night this at Issac's Restaurant and Deli.  Our 2009 lottery tickets will be on sale soon.  On Jan. 10th we will be hosting our annual Shrimp and Chicken Feed at the Eagles' banquet hall, with advance ticketing.  And on February 14th we will be hosting our annual KIDA indoor Marching Band and Guard Competition at the LHS High School.  Last year we hosted 33 separate performing groups at this event.  The planning for this is just now starting

 

Wow! and this is a Band trip year!!  Right now our kids are participating in sub and pizza sales to raise monies for their spring band trip.  So look for these fund raisers and lend your support to give them a hand.

 

Too much fun......
