Band Cookie Cards

As a music fundraiser ZMS Bands have been selling Otis Spunkmeyer cookies once a month on Fridays during lunch. The cookies are chocolate chip only and sell for 2 for $1. Many students and staff purchase these cookies but many times children forget their dollar. To help solve this problem and to make it easier we will begin using “Cookie Cards”.
Cards may be purchased for $10 each. Parents must print, fill out and sign the form found here and return it along with $10 payment to school. Checks should be made out to ZMS Band. Students may also bring the completed form with cash or check payment to the next cookie sale on Nov. 18th during lunch. Cards may be purchased at any time throughout the year. Once a cookie card form is turned in it will be kept so we will have it at each cookie sale. No child will have to worry about losing it! No refunds will be given at the end of the school year. Any unused “dollars” will be donated to the Band.
Thank you for supporting the ZMS Bands!
