Don't grow up it's a trap!
I am happy to report that the hospitality crew's inner child is ageless and they want in on some of this spirit week fun. Shhh...It's a surprise for the kids; so don't let the Eagle out of the bag! The hospitality crew encourages their volunteers to participate in their own version of spirit week because life is better when it is filled with fun and laughter.
(Spirit week is July 31st-August 4th)
Monday: America Day
Tuesday: Tacky Tourist Day
Wednesday: Tie Dye/Neon Day
Thursday: Crazy Hat Day
Friday: Eastern Spirit/ Band Shirt Day
Let's get into the theme of things and band together as a band family ! It's EASTERN time!

The uniform room is so topsy turvy right now that it should be ill-eagle. It's time for an intervention. Can you help police it with Noelle and Patrick to bring it back from the dark side? They need 4 volunteers for this mission. Please join us on Tuesday, August 1st from 6PM-9PM to organize, sanitize, and revitalize the uniform room.

I know it may sound corny, but can you pop on over to the concession stand on Monday, August 7th and Thursday, August 10th to give it some much needed love and attention. Old Betsey needs a little brawn and magic to get her in shape to be open for business on our first home game on August 18th. Just take a quick peek at the link below to see a job description that mirrors your talents. It's EASTERN time!

We are getting sponsors and donations for the Eagle Classic on lock down now, but communication is key. If you have contacted a particular manager or business location, please submit that list to Kim Bagwell at 864-918-8836 or imacherokee@gmail.com in order for us not to double dip local area businesses. It takes a village to make the Eagle Classic a successful event and we sure are glad that you are a part of our tribe. It's a great time to be an Eastern Eagle!

Who's ready for a little on-line shopping for your back to school needs? You will find the link for AmazonSmile below. http://smile.amazon.com/ch/61-6039734 Please know that you must use the link EACH time you log in in order for the band to get credit. If you find pajama bottoms, and your laptop, more inviting than fighting mall traffic, then grab your credit card and use AmazonSmile to benefit the band. It's basically philanthropy. Who can argue with that?

Please note that our organization number for the Kroger Community Rewards is 10284. I typed it incorrectly on the post that went out in yesterday's email blast. It has been corrected. I apologize for any confusion that this may have caused.
Let's go Krogering for the band!

Are you fired up about the picnic on Friday?
Well, the hospitality crew definitely is and they would love a few extra sets of hands to help prepare for this event. If you could show up at around 4:30, it would make them feel all warm and toasty inside.
The s'mores volunteers the better!
I follow my heart and it always leads me to an Eastern Band picnic.

Did you miss Taco Tuesday and know you're suffering the Woe-filled Wednesdays? Well, have no fear because your apron clad crusaders are here. Wonder Twin Powers.. Activate: Form of an amazing volunteering opportunity! You can join our multi-talented hospitality Wonder Twins (Karen Risher Pridemore & Tracy Moore Horlander) in preparing and serving dinner to our hungry marchers tomorrow. Please show up at 3:00 and plan to stay through cleanup. If you could lend them a gloved hand, they just think that would be super!

Lettuce talk about Kroger Community Rewards! Do you mean I just shop at Kroger and a percentage of what I spend goes directly to the band? Well, that makes my heart skip a beet! How do I sign up you might ask? Well, you're in luck...
