Tag Days are coming!
Tag Days 2019 are Friday, September 27th and Saturday, September 28th. Tag Days is our biggest fundraiser of the year!  Student pairs (in uniform) stand outside local businesses asking for donations for the ROHS Instrumental Music program. An adult chaperone is needed with each pair.  Students may sign up together and parents may split the shift if they'd like. (Students can NOT split a shift.) Once you have signed up, you have made a commitment to stand that shift. Without all of the shifts covered, we will not meet our fundraising goal.

All band, orchestra, jazz and marching band students are expected to work at least one shift.

Orchestra and Band students please wear your Concert uniform. For those also in MB or color guard please wear your MB/CG uniform. Students are encouraged to play at their post; guidelines for music/playing will be given in class.

Please see the two Tag Days signups below. Thank you for your support!



Note: Students with Friday shifts must pick up your donation cans in the MMR on Friday between 3-3:30 p.m .
Remember to check the ROHSBOB   CALENDAR  for upcoming events!
