Calling All Cooks!

From gourmet to backyard chefs! We need all of you for our next fundraiser! Don’t worry… we’re not asking you to cook! We need recipes and committee volunteers for our cookbook. This fundraiser will offer us great profit for our strong team effort while giving us the opportunity to showcase our community. So, don’t stop with just your recipes… make sure you ask family, friends, neighbors, teachers, coaches, church members, city employees, hair stylists, etc. for their favorite recipes. Let them know their name will be included with the recipe and printed in our cookbook which will be in print for years to come.

Recipe forms will be available in the band room and on the band website. We will start collecting recipes January 22 and end February 18. Take orders for cookbooks that will be back in time for Mother’s Day.

More details and tips will be frequently emailed as well as posted on this website.  

So Hurry and Send in those recipes!

Let’s show the community that in addition to PRIDE… we have GREAT TASTE!!!

We need committee volunteers to help in these areas:

Gather & organize recipes

Design our cookbook

Sell advertising

Market our cookbook

COOKBOOK NEWS & TIPS

Recipe forms are now in the band room! Please remind the students to pick up a few of them. The forms have a letter printed on one side that also serves as an order form to pre-order copies of our cookbook. Be sure to point that out to the people you are requesting recipes from for they will be some of our best customers. After we have received our beautiful cookbooks from the publisher an order form will be available to request the total amount of copies you need.  

If you do not happen to have a recipe form when you ask Aunt Sally at the family reunion for her awesome Mac-n-Cheese recipe, don't fret! Just use a plain piece of paper, write it down as correct as possible (please print clearly), include her name as the submitter of the recipe and make sure to also include the band member's name and phone no. in case we have questions.

Our recipe goal is 500. We can do this! So, please submit lots & lots of recipes!

Here our some challenges.

Request at least two recipes from out-of-state friends/relatives.

Request a recipe from someone living in another country.

And don't forget to ask for recipes next time you are at the doctor or dentist office. Remember this is a community cookbook!

Also, we still need more committee volunteers! 


Thanks,

Deborah Triplett
