Band Jam Fundraising

Band Jam fundraising has reached new heights this year from profit shares with local vendors. Businesses around campus, including Spicy Pickle, Cornucopia, and Pita Pit have already participated in profit shares where various amounts of proceeds from Texas Spirit’s sales go directly to Make-A-Wish. Red Mango, Austin’s Pizza and Schlotzsky’s have also agreed to partner up with us to grant some wishes. Band Jam committee member and Fall ’09 weenie Sharilyn Stone has been working hard to make this the best Band Jam yet.

“I was a little nervous when we began contacting different businesses to help our cause, but when I made my first call to Spicy Pickle, they were so awesome!” Stone said. “Everyone is so wiling to help out. Profit shares are definitely a win-win situation for everyone!”

The Texas Spirits Bake Sale in front of Gregory Gym on Monday, October 31 will have Halloween themed goodies for sale. All profits will to straight to Make-A-Wish.

Tickets for the 16th annual Band Jam go on sale this Wednesday, October 19. For more details, visit http://www.txspiritsbandjam.com/.
