BUTTON SALES - NEW SWAG ALERT
The Band Boosters are excited to announce a new fundraiser that is already live. This one is for students, parents, and the entire MJHS community. Throughout the season we will be selling two different sizes of buttons to celebrate the band and MJHS. Linked below is a Google Form with an order form to purchase. Smaller buttons are $2 and the larger buttons are $4. We will also be selling select designs out of the concessions stand during all home football games. Buttons orders will be fulfilled once we have confirmation of payment which can be made via cash, check, or Givebacks.

SWAG STORE - SPOT ON SHOW SHIRT LIVE
The show shirt for Spot On! is now live in the Swag Store in both short- and long-sleeved options. When checking out, if you select pickup as an option for delivery, the orders will be delivered directly to the school and you will not be charged. Show shirts for the students have already been ordered and the cost is included in their band fees.
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Hospitality Needs
After every home game, we need parents to assist with cleaning both the home and away bleachers. This is the band’s responsibility as part of being awarded concessions. I am adding a hospitality line to the chaperone sign up genius. We are asking for 4 people for each home game. Sign up for Hospitality here.
Tote N Tow Needs
Friday night was our first outing with the current props and things were a little bumpy. Brian Edge is our Tote N Tow Committee Chair and has given the Board a list of needs from the Tote N Tow Committee for all games and competitions for the rest of the season.
Notes:
Those who are signed up to chaperone can, and should, help with Tote N Tow (pushing props off and on the field) when possible.
16 openings have been added to the sign up genius for Tote N Tow. 14 of those positions are fully accounted for and 2 of them are alternates.
Prop Painting
We will be adding the final touches to props on Saturday, August 30, 2025. We need parent volunteers to help paint. We will be at the school at 8:00 and will work until we are finished. If you are able to participate, please reply to this email to let me know.
Laundry Needs
We have a few dates available to wash uniforms. Each sign up is worth an hour of volunteer hours. Click here for the laundry sign up.
Chaperone Needs
There are still openings for chaperones at upcoming games and competitions. All chaperoning hours count toward volunteer time. Reminder: all chaperones must be cleared through Wilson County Schools.

Concessions Sign Up
Looking for a way to help pay band dues? Sign up to work concessions and earn $15 for every hour that you work. There are various workstations and training is provided. This is also a really fun way to meet parents. Click here for a link to sign up to work concessions.
BAND MEAL BALANCE
Families with an overdrawn meal balance should expect to receive an email from Michele McDonald, our Board Vice President. Families are only charged for a meal if their student chooses to eat and will never be turned down, regardless of their balance. Payments can be made via Givebacks, cash, or a check dropped in the white box in Mr. Cox’s room. Check should be made out to Mt. Juliet Band Boosters and need to include your student’s name in the memo line and designate that the funds are for band meals.
