TAG DAY 2019

• Tag Day is Saturday, September 14, 2019, 9am-3pm (students and drivers arrive at 8:30am). Students meet in the choir room; drivers meet in the band room.

• Biggest fundraiser of the year with money used to purchase instruments and other band equipment, support band trips, replace or repair marching band uniforms and concert attire, and provide transportation to competitions.

• Mandatory participation of all band members - Symphonic, Wind Ensemble, Percussion, Guard.

• Full uniform (not hats/plumes or gloves.) If raining, we will wear ponchos over the uniform.  

• The students go door-to-door within the Fairfax High School community asking for donations to support the band program. Students either receive donations on that day or leave a tag and envelope with the request for financial support. 

• We need 30 parent volunteers to drive 150 students around the neighborhoods. Students sign up in groups of 4 in the band room.

• Drivers will be provided with a map of the neighborhood/streets to visit. If you would like to drive your own student or visit your own neighborhood, we will try to work it out- just note it on the SUG.

• Drivers take the students to lunch (with money the students bring). Freddy’s is offering Tag Day participants a 10% discount. If you are close, please stop in for lunch! Just let them know you are with the band! Thanks Redlers family!

• Please visit this Sign Up Genius to volunteer to drive.
