Bomberopoly Updates
Because of increases in production costs, we will need to sell the game for $35 each. This isn't a big increase (only $5), but will cover additional costs. Pre-paid boards will be honored at the price sold. If you have reserved a patron ad, or or pre-ordered a game, payment is due March 15th. Remember that this is a tax-deductible donation to RHS IMB- a 501(c) non-profit. (Receipts available upon request).
More info go to Fund Raisers.

New way to get your ASB fees paid
Our treasurer,Greg Carpenter, has completed his calculations and has fundraising
account balances. These funds can be use to pay music department related fines in the ASB office including marching band, tuxes, dresses, etc. The funds can also remain in the account and be used for the Hawaii trip or futures fees for the student. The funds will remain with the
student until they graduate, at which time they can be transferred to another
student or donated to the Richland High Music Program.
There is a new process and form to pay for ASB fees for our instrumental music students. The "Permission to use Instrumental Music Funds to Pay Fees" is mandatory to get your students' ASB fees paid from fundraising monies.
To get your student's fundraising balance, please email Greg Carpenter at lgcarp1991@yahoo.com. Please copy form (below) into an email, fill in amounts to be transferred, and send to our IMB Secretary Greg Carpenter.
REMEMBER: Fees are payable before grades are distributed at the end of the quarter.
