President's Update
Howdy Tiger Band Families!
Our spring fundraising events are approaching quick, and we need your help!
Pageantry in the Springs, our TCGC Winter Guard and Percussion contest on January 28, is less than two weeks away! We need help from every band family to meet the volunteer needs to run this event smoothly. There are positions available in shifts throughout the day and as close or far from the performance area as you’d like. Please sign up here and get plugged in to help!
This Thursday at 5:00pm there will be an Evening of Jazz planning meeting at Railroad BBQ. Please join us to get the inside scoop on silent auction items and where Mike Rutherford still needs help with the event.
Save the date for An Evening of Jazz as well! The event will be the evening of March 2 at Dripping Springs Ranch park. Tickets will be available for students to sell soon. If your business would like to donate an item to the silent auction, please email SilentAuction@dsbandboosters.org
Go Tiger Band!

HEB Gift Cards Fundraiser Info
Towards the end of 2022, we generated one of our largest monthly orders post-COVID with a $17,000 card order. If more of you place orders, we will easily be able to reach $25,000 in card orders. HEB will give a higher percentage back to our band IF we reach this goal.
Let’s do this!! Just use the link above to place your order or send us an email with any questions. Better yet, mark your order as a recurring monthly order and help out the band all year long.
We promise to make the process as seamless as possible, and you can always email if you have any questions at hebcards@gmail.com.

Percussion Update
Mark your calendars! The Percussion Solo Contest will be on Saturday, February 4thfor all Dripping Springs percussion students (grades 6-12).
We need a few parents to help that day with student check-in and to promote all the percussion activities to the parents that stay while their student participates. It’s a great way to meet the upcoming Middle School parents. Please reach out to Allison Muth if you are interested.
