F.Y.I. The average scores
achieved by music students on the 1999 SAT increased for every year of
musical study. This same trend was found in SAT scores of previous
years.

Gordon Foods: FUN FUNDS
- Generates funds all year long.
The easiest
fundraiser ever organized by the Thurston Band Boosters
is the Fun Funds program at Gordon Food Services (GFS
Marketplace). The Fun Funds program raises money through
cash rebates paid directly to our school based on
purchases made by our member at any GFS Marketplace
store.
How it works: Just go to any Gordon Food Service
and select specially marked FUN Funds Food items, when
purchasing items tell the cashier that your
purchase is for Thurston High School Band. Membership is
free, you can obtain a membership form at the store or
from the Band Boosters.
Support our band.
Remember that shopping at GFS Marketplace and purchasing
specially marked items you will be earning money for the
band. Share this information with family and
friends and they can help support the band, too. Find
out more information by attending the next Band Booster
meeting.
