Pregame Meals

What is a Pre-Game Meal?
Many times, students aren't able to leave to grab something to eat prior to getting ready for a football game, especially on Thursday and Friday games. Therefore, the band boosters offer the option of purchasing a lunch ahead of time for your student on predetermined dates. The lunches are distributed to the student at their designated report time. Students are not allowed to eat at the game while in uniform. All meals/snacks will need to be consumed prior to putting on band uniform. Only water provided by the boosters will be allowed during the games.
Which dates are meals available for & what time will they be distributed?
Friday, August 27th---3pm
Saturday, September 18th---1pm
Friday, September 24th---3:30 pm
Friday, October 1st---2:30 pm
Thursday, October 7th---3:30 pm
Thursday, October 14th--3:30 pm
What type of lunch is provided? (look in the Forms section under Marching Season)
Some days we will provide Chick-fil-A and others will be a Jason's CCP Sandwich Box. NO DRINKS will be provided, student is responsible for bringing their own drinks or just drinking the water provided to them at games. Remember on Sandwich days....students must choose which type of sandwich they will want. A sign will be posted on the door for them to choose, ahead of time. If no choice is made ahead of time they will be given ham on white bread.
How much is it? Do we have to buy all lunches?
Total package is $30, Chick-fil-A weeks are $4 and Jason's Deli Week is $6. You may pick and chose which dates to purchase for. Just make sure you order in time for that week's game.
Where do we submit money & order form? When is it due?
Submit order form with payment to the RED BOX located in the bandhall (by the director's office)by 2:30pm, Tuesday, August 24th if you are buying all meals for $30 or even if you are interested in purchasing only for the Northshore game. If buying week to week just make sure you submit by Tuesday, 2:30pm the week of and shoot me an email to let me know that your child needs to be added for that week. sharonpmata@yahoo.com

Mums in the News

Homecoming is very early this year as it falls on September 24th! This means that we need all the help we can get to ensure another successful year of fundraising. Homecoming mum sales has always been and will continue to be one of the biggest fundraisers for our band!
HOW TO HELP: There are tasks suited to all skill levels. (You do not have to be creative to help.) Mum work shifts vary throughout the season. To ask about current work shifts please contact Karen Carter (day crew) at 713-723-1867, or Denise Thompson (evening crew) at 281-536-5071. Students/other children are not permitted in the mum room!
MUM SALES: We strongly encourage you to place your mum &/or garter order(s) early this year. On August 24th & 26th the band students will receive a free (NEW!) Tiger Tail Braid with their order(s). (This braid usually sells for $3.) Please contact Kristie Swoboda with questions about sales at 713-826-1990. (Kristie will also need help selling mums & garters at varying days and times.)
The Katy High School band mum shop has been in existence since the early eighties! It is a huge source of pride and long standing tradition with our band. We even have parents and grandparents who have graduated but still continue to volunteer and support this fundraiser. We're very proud of that and are also quite proud to say that we make the BEST mums in town ...as with all things Katy, "often imitated, never duplicated"!

Props for the State Halftime Show

Way to go band! Read this great article about you during the state game.
