Pasta Pizzaz Ticket Order Form
8th Annual Pasta Pizzaz--Sunday March 8th
This year's Pasta Pizzazz event is quickly approaching. This is a great event for our performing groups to have a chance to practice in front of
a crowd before their March contests. Therefore, you need to be on the ball and spread the word to your family and friends right away!
They won't want to miss this fun evening of great food, amazing music, and opportunities to win great prizes!
We are asking all band and guard families to sell at least 2 tickets to make this event a success. Order forms are due by Tuesday, March 3.
This year we are again asking middle school and high school band students to donate themed items for baskets that we will raffle off at
Pasta Pizzazz. Stay tuned for a list of basket themes by grade/band and a signup for volunteers and dessert donations.
