We are excited to announce that Ed Creaden is offering a special photo package discount program for all Rompin’ Stompin’ Raider Band members!  This special is for seniors looking for an awesome senior photo portfolio AND for other band members that may be interested in individual or family photos for any occasion.

You have seen some of Ed’s photography in the 2008 and 2009 marching band DVDs, but be sure to check out his website at:  www.edcreadenphotography.com for samples of senior and family photos and more information.

We have also created a Tab on the left side of the News Flash screen that will link you directly to this special page on his website. The Tab is labled "Photo Special - Ed Creaden's".

This special offer is for all 2009/2010 SMS marching band members, and includes the following:

·       10% off any photo package and all ala carte prints;

·       One additional free 8x10 print will be added to all print packages; and,

·       A $25 cash donation will be made by Ed directly to the SMS Band Boosters for every band student that purchases a photo session!

This is a great way to get fantastic photos while at the same time helping raise money for our band!  Contact Ed by email, directly from his website, or by phone at 913.599.2547 for more information or to schedule your photo shoot.

Do you own your own business?  Are you looking for unique ways to advertise? Do you work for a company exploring ways to advertise locally? Do you know someone who owns a business?  The SMS Band Spirit Wear Team has an exciting opportunity we’d like to extend to local businesses.

For the first time we are offering the ability to advertise your business on Stadium Chairs while sponsoring the Rompin’ Stompin’ Raider Band.  Tax-deductible sponsorships are available for $500 per spot; multiple spots can be combined to create a larger ad.  Your company info would be printed on Stadium Chairs orders for a full year!  Plus, your advertising dollars continue to work for you as long as the Stadium Chairs are in use!

                                             

SMS BAND PARENTS & FRIENDS:

The Band Booster Spirit Wear Team has received many requests for Stadium Chairs. We have done a great deal of research and believe we have a top-quality product.

·     Three-ply poly fabric cover consisting of a poly canvas, foam padding, and nylon    fabric backing, all quilted together for superior quality and maximum comfort.  Resistant to fade and mildew.

·     Outstanding construction  - strong tubular steel yet easy to carry. 

·     Seat is 17” wide x 14.5” high and weighs less than 6 lbs.

PRE-ORDER REQUESTS:  To ensure we can meet the demand for the limited quantity of stadium chairs we order, we offer you the opportunity to pre-order your stadium chairs. 

Price per chair is just $35, less than you might expect to pay in a retail store for this quality.  We expect to take delivery of the order in mid-August just before school starts.

If you want to ensure you get one of these comfortable seats, you can send a pre-order request to Pete & Deb DeMars at pete.demars@gmail.com with this information:

You will receive an email confirmation of your pre-order and we’ll also email you when the chairs arrive to arrange pickup.
