UBPC - NEEDS YOUR HELP

While we are sad that May is quickly approaching and some of our parents will have students graduating, we are excited to be preparing for a busy year ahead for Renegade Regiment! If you are interested in serving our fabulous organization in a volunteer position, please consider submitting an application SOON...by 4/29. You can go to unionbands.com/volunteer to submit application.

This organization can only support our students and the directors with everyone’s help. It takes many hands to fill all of the important roles that keep the band running and UBPC is looking for energetic volunteers to fill these positions. The UPBC’s main resource is YOU.

Do you have a hobby or skill you think could benefit the organization? Do you have a heart to help and serve? We are looking for volunteers to help serve on open board positions. Below are just a few of the areas we are looking for help:

  • Treasurer

  • Concessions

  • Merchandising

  • And Many More Areas

You will learn everything you need to serve in any position. Please reach out to the nominations committee to help serve.


Anticipated Fundraising Availability:

All fundraising products available for checkout are out of stock for the rest of the school year.

We will have details on the Living Colors Flowers Delivery date soon! Sign up for our REMIND to get that information when it is available.

Our final spring fundraiser has been canceled due to low participation in spring fundraising efforts. Fundraising will kick back up next fall to aid families in paying band fees!

*Due to rising shipping costs, our "Shop With Scrip'' cards will only be delivered through UBPC once per semester. We will continue to take orders for plastic gift cards through March, and then the next UBPC Delivery will be in the fall.

*You can always order "Shop With Scrip'' cards any time using the ship to home option or electronic gift cards.

*Sign up for our REMIND for monthly fundraiser money turn-in, chocolate and beef distribution, and fundraising product distribution information. Text @ubpc-fundr to 81010

*Chocolate and Beef sales money can always be turned into the money lock boxes in your student's band room.

*Where possible UBPC prefers ONE BIG CHECK.


Student Account Important Message

Any remaining balance due on your financial account for fundraising, class fees, trip fees, or any other misc. fee is required to be paid in full no later than April 29th.  All accounts should have a zero or credit balance by this date.  Please log into your CHARMS account to check your financial statement to ensure your account is paid in full. 


Patches!

If you ordered a Patch Pack, you may pick them up after school after 4pm May 10th in the band hall or on the same day at the May parent meeting on Tuesday, May 10th or at the Band Banquet Monday, May 16th. I will also have show patches ($6) and Renegade Review ($6) patches for sale on both dates if you are interested.


Overwhelmed by the cost of being a part of one of the best band programs in the land? Look no further than our WONDERFUL fundraising opportunities at OneOk field! Union Bands help staff a concession stand at the Drillers and FC Tulsa events at OneOk field. When you volunteer, $45 per volunteer gets deposited directly in your student’s Charms account. When you bring your student and volunteer together, that’s $90 for just one event!

We have had so many families over the years take advantage of this unbelievable opportunity to raise plenty of money for their band account.  It is also a great way to raise money without having to sell anything to family and friends.  The first event is a week away, and we could really use your participation
