Hello BMS & Hough Dance Families!
We are sending this reminder email to complete the survey in the initial email below, regarding interest in attending the 2019 NYC Dance Trip.
In an effort to help students afford the trip, we are initiating a SnapRaise campaign at the start of school. This is a essentially a “direct giving” campaign, and many schools, teachers, and friends we know have had much success. The Hough Band has already raised $7,000 in its first week!! We will have a meeting with our Fundraising contact, Drew, on Thursday evening, August 23rd – time is TBD. We will be starting with this fundraiser, and then go from there, based on how much we all can raise – the more involved, students, parents, teachers – the better the resultsJ
To help determine fundraising participation, and financial need, please complete the survey below.

Also, we have learned that some of our dance families have not received our initial communication, so please feel free to forward this email if you discover they are missing this information.
Thank you, and please feel free to contact me with any questions. We will be in touch again over the next 2 weeks with additional details.
