Since I am constantly bombarded with requests from people who want to know how to support the Arapahoe High School Marching Band (where +Kay Hill plays), I'm here to tell you about three fundraising opportunities:
1. If you are the cash-giving kind of person, then on Colorado Gives day on 8 December you can make donations to the band boosters (a charitable organization, so tax-deductable!) that will be matched at 10%. Note that you do not have to lie in Colorado to participate in this. (https://www.coloradogives.org/ArapahoeBandBoosters/overview)
2. If you are the food-loving kind of person, then the band is also selling 2 lb. tubs of cookie dough for $12 (less per tub if you buy more than one), in a variety of flavors. Let me know if you need more details.
3. If you are just tired of this, then you need to sleep on a good mattress, and the band is doing another mattress sale on 13 December via CFS Front Range (https://www.facebook.com/cfsfrontrange/). This netted the band quite a bit last spring, and we've certainly been happy with the mattresses we bought at the time. (If you do go to this, be sure and mention Kay's name, since she gets a kickback reward for each referral.)
Or, you know, you can just not contribute and I'll have to upload videos of my daughter in tears. Your choice.

Huh, +Kay Hill must be upselling since she told +Mary Oswell that the single tubs are $16.
+Stan Pedzick No, that's probably her doltish dad getting the price wrong.
