Letter to the Editor: And the Band Plays On

To the Editor: 

On behalf of the Collingswood Panther Marching Band Boosters, I would like to thank everyone who attended our 6th Annual Basket Raffle on March 10. I trust that you had a fun and exciting evening!

The Boosters would like to extend a very special THANK YOU to a few very special people—our Band Director Joe Lerch, Assistant Director Steve Lantz, and their incredible support staff: Jay Bruner, Amanda Gantz, Tommy Amadio, Steve Tarte, AJ Formeny, CJ Hartung, Caroline Linton and Liv Shreeves. Without these very talented people in our children’s lives we would not have such outstanding bands.

The Booster organization would also like to extend a very heartfelt THANK YOU to the administrators of our school: Dr. Scott Oswald, Mr. Ed Hill, Mr. Rich Jarnecki, Mr. Al Hird and his incredible maintenance staff. We sincerely thank all of you!

The Boosters would also like to say Thank You to all of the businesses and individuals that donated to our event. Without their support, events such as the Basket Raffle would be impossible.

Finally, I would like to thank my fellow Boosters for their incredible support, the long after-work and weekend hours they put in gathering donations and wrapping baskets—you all make a phenomenal team!

CHS Booster President
