For those of you who have made the decision to join the DGS Marching Mustangs, I would like to offer you the opportunity to apply for a Marching Band scholarship from the Mustang Band Boosters.
Applications are now being accepted through April 15, 2011 for the Marching Band scholarship which has a value of up to $200 that is applied towards your Marching Band fee. The application may be found on the DGS website at: http://www.csd99.k12.il.us/south/. Search for Fine Arts under the Academics tab at the top of the page and when you get to the Fine Arts page, click on the Band Blackboard tab on the right-hand side. (Or click here to go directly to the Band Blackboard page.) The scholarship application and information is found on the Band page under the scholarship tab.
However, in order to be eligible for a scholarship, a student must have fulfilled a minimum of three (3) volunteer opportunities, i.e. "Service Credits" as indicated below. Such Service Credits must be completed prior to the final payment deadline date of June 10, 2011. The Service Credits are tracked by the Vice President of Membership with input provided by the various Directors and/or fundraiser chairperson.
Upcoming opportunities to earn Service Credits are Market Day, Plant Sale or Band Director and/or other volunteer opportunity assistance, to name just a few. Even though you are still at your respective schools, you are considered a Marching Mustang and may participate in these fundraising events to obtain your Service Credits.
If interested, please send the completed application to:
Craig Roselieb
Downers Grove South High School
1436 Norfolk Street
Downers Grove, IL 60516
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Regards,
Cathy Jama
Band Booster President
