​PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
 
By now, you have made an $800 deposit towards your musician's trip to Spain. We hope you are actively participating in the fundraising opportunities to help offset the cost of the trip for your child, or to support the overall trip expenses that will be incurred by the entire Orchestra organization.  We have been especially touched to hear from students who are participating for the benefit of a classmate in need. It's a wonderful lesson in maturity and selflessness.

Between now and February 15, 2019, you will need to make an additional $2,000 payment towards the cost of the trip.  In an effort to be flexible and sensitive to the additional expenses that come during the holiday season, we offer you the following three options :

PAYMENT OPTION 1
A single payment of $2,000 due on November 15, 2018
         
PAYMENT OPTION 2
TWO payments of $1,000, both due on November 15, 2019.  The first check should be dated November 15, 2018.  The second check can be dated between December 15, 2018 and February 15, 2019 and will be deposited in accordance with the date you choose. 
 
PAYMENT OPTION 3
FOUR payments of $500, ALL DUE ON NOVEMBER 15 and checks dated in monthly increments, November 15, December 15, 2018 and January 15, and February 15, 2019.  The corresponding check will be deposited each month. 
​
Please remember that ALL CHECKS MUST BE MADE OUT TO MBX FOUNDATION WITH YOUR STUDENT'S NAME IN THE MEMO LINE.  Submitting all checks at once, regardless of the option you choose, will help reduce the amount of time spent by Booster VP of Finance collecting payments.

The final payment amount will be determined in early March of next year once the Boosters have tallied the fundraising efforts of each student. This payment will be required by March 15, 2019. If a musician is an especially motivated fundraiser, it is possible that no additional payment will be due, or perhaps a refund will be provided. 

For those who opt out of fundraising, expect the final payment to be in the range of $1,000 to $1,200.  If you have questions or need to make other payment arrangements, please contact  Janet Anderson.
