Drama Boosters Plan for the Season’s Events and Fundraisers
Thank you in advance for your support and participation. Drama Boosters is an integral part of bringing the shows to our audiences. Many hands make for light work. We appreciate all you can do to make this year a success for the Drama and Thespian students.
Fall Play: Peter and the Starcatcher
Drama Boosters will sell concessions and flowers, and will run the ticket booth. A request for volunteers and donations will be sent out using Sign-up Genius 2 weeks prior.
Hosting Jr. Thespians District Competition – November 4th and 5th, 2023
This is a major fundraiser for us, and we are so excited to have the opportunity to do this. Over 500 middle school students, coaches and judges come to Lake Mary High for their district competition. We sell concessions both days and provide lunch for everyone on Saturday. This event involves a lot of planning, logistics and volunteers to be the best hosts and representatives from Lake Mary High. Thespian and Drama Club students are also involved in hosting the event. A request for volunteers and donations will be sent out using Sign-up Genius 2 weeks prior. Thank you in advance for all you can do to support this event.
Spirit Nights – Dates TBD
Drama Boosters will organize a few Spirit Nights each semester to promote fellowship and raise funds for the department at the same time. We are in the process of scheduling those for this semester and will get the word out shortly. We hope you’ll participate.
