  The L.D. Bell Band Band Aids

Attention all 8th & 9th graders! We need a few good Band Aids to help at the football games. If you like to work hard, play hard, and be where the action is, then this is the job for you. Band Aids meet early on football game days to help load the trucks, keep everyone refreshed with water, and other important tasks that support the Bell band. The first football game is Friday, August 26th! Be sure to read the Guidelines for Band Aids, sign them, and fill out an application. Your parents need to read & sign all the forms, too. Email them to Karen Stanfield at kjstanfield@att.net, deliver them to Mr. Holt at the Bell Band Hall or fax to the LD Bell Band at 817-285-3213.
