Greetings
Happy Memorial Day and let's honor all those who have served! We hope everyone had a memorable last week of school and we congratulate all the seniors! We know they are destined for great things. 💙 Save the date for our next event in a couple of weeks, a Spirit Day at On the Border on June 13.
JUNE 13 ON THE BORDER SPIRIT DAY
Want to get together this summer and socialize with other L. D. Bell students and their families? Join the Raiderettes at On The Border, in Bedford, on June 13 between 11 a.m. and 10 pm. Please share the flyer on social media and invite all your friends!
June Calendar Fundraiser- Pick a date to donate
If you are still looking for sponsors or need support for drill team expenses, consider participating in the optional Calendar Fundraiser where you ask friends and family member to pick a date to donate. Janna created the calendars for Instagram and/or Facebook so you can share on your personal social media pages if you like. How does it work? Have people choose a calendar day to sponsor. They will donate the amount of money equal to the corresponding number (i.e. June 20 equals donating $20). Keep going until every day is sponsored (a person could technically sponsor more than one day if need be). You will collect the money and then submit the money to our Treasurer, Shannon or Assistant Misty on July 11 at Practice Wear Pick Up so it can be credited to your daughter's account.
