Annual Chicken BBQ Meal August 24

No time to cook; the Ada Music Boosters have you covered!   Buy your ticket for the Ada Music Boosters Annual BBQ prior to the first home football game August 24.

Tickets are now on sale for the annual Ada Music Boosters BBQ dinner held at the Ada Village Park prior to the first home football game of the year. This year’s BBQ will be from 4:30 to 6:00 on Friday, August 24 before the Bulldogs host Upper Scioto Valley.

The annual BBQ is a major fund-raiser for the Ada Music Boosters. Proceeds benefit numerous projects for Ada’s instrumental and vocal music programs. Tickets are being sold now through August 16. There are 4 easy ways to obtain tickets:

• Contact any Ada High School Marching Band, Color Guard or Varsity Singer member
• Contact Arlene Allison at 419-302-7698 or Amy Morgan at 419-957-2125. Please leave your name, phone number or email to receive a confirmation.
• Email the Music Boosters at adamusicboosters@adabulldogs.org
• Leave a message on the facebook page facebook.com/AdaMusicBoosters

Priced at $9, these popular dinners prepared by The Old Barn Out Back include barbecue chicken quarters, pulled pork, cheddar mashed potatoes, green beans, and a dinner roll.  The Ada Music Booster BBQ is a long-standing Ada tradition because so many find it to be an easy way for families to enjoy a quick and convenient dinner before the first home football game of the season. We encourage you to buy your tickets early.  Also available at pick-up while supplies last, the Music Boosters will be selling The Old Barn Out Back cinnamon rolls, 6 for $5, and slices of pie for $2 each.

ARE YOU ENROLLED IN KROGER COMMUNITY REWARDS?

Kroger Community Rewards is a program that rewards the Ada Music Boosters for purchases that registrants make at Kroger using their Kroger Plus Card! Registrants already know that by shopping at Kroger and using their Kroger Plus card, Kroger makes quarterly payments to the Ada Music Boosters. Registrations do expire in the spring, so it is important to check your receipt to see if your purchases are still going to help the Music Boosters. Thank you to everyone that has participated in this program! If your registration has expired, please re-enroll following the instructions posted on our Kroger re-enrollment page. Instructions for first-time enrollments are also provided.

 

EXPLANATION OF FEES PROVIDED

Did you ever wonder what the school fees pay for and what the Music Booster fees pay for? We have created a special page to show the fee breakdown for the various programs. See our Explanation of Fees page (it is located under the Electronic Resources menu).
