Annual Fruit Sale Results
The Florida Indian River Fruit Sale held in October 2012 was a success. A total of 197 cases of fruit were sold for a total profit received of $2,338.70. Selling students will receive $4.00 per case of fruit sold into their music accounts. We'd like to thank Maria Cefali for coordinating and administering the entire fruit sale. Many hours of work goes into this fundraiser and Maria graciously volunteered to take it on. We'd like to thank Sharon Knust, Treasurer for handling all of the payments and distributing money into the student accounts.

Behind the Scenes Expenses
Did you know it takes approximately $10,000 to 15,000 per year to subsidize the music department school budget to support the various music program at Armada Schools? Did you ever wonder where the funds are allocated from the Music Boosters? Well, there are many behind the scene expenses required to run these wonderful music programs. For example there are instructor fees for marching band camp, MSBOA marching festival fees, solo & ensemble fees, choir festival fees, pre-festival judge fees, musical score payments, musical instrument repair fees, special rewards for the students, cleaning fees for uniforms, replacement costs for concert uniforms, miscellaneous expenses associated with instructors and fundraisers to name a few.
We encourage all parents/students to participate in the monthly Booster Meetings and/or contact any Booster Member to become better acquainted with the inner workings of the music department.
