Lompoc High School Dance
Patron Ads Ø Patron ads are an easy way for your friends and family to wish you and/or the Braves, good luck. Ø These are 1-3 sentences which are published in the athletic program at all home games. (see examples below). If the ad is more than 3 sentences I will edit it! Ø The cost for each ad is $5.00 (patrons can donate more than $5). The total amount you collect will be credited to your “account.” Payment may be made by cash, check, or money order. Checks should include the student’s name in the memo line. Ø Most people use this money to pay for their uniform needs. If you do not need the money for uniforms, the amount will still be credited to your “account” and you may use it to pay for those things you will need during the year. Examples include competition expenses, tights, show shirts, etc. Ø Please turn in all patron ads on one piece of paper. Please write or type each line carefully and check your spelling. If I can’t read a word or more, I will either guess or delete it! You may also email ads to jansen.bree@lusd.org. Ø Mrs. Jansen, the LHS Athletic Department, and Lompoc High School have the right to edit and/or disclude any messages they feel are inappropriate for printing. Ø If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! Ø Examples: Go Susie! You are the best dancer I have ever seen and I am glad I get to watch you on the field at the football games. Go Braves! Love, Uncle Allen Patron ads are due to Mrs. Jansen by Thursday, August 19, 2010.

Dear Cheerleader,
I hope you're having a wonderful and refreshing summer! It will soon be time to head back to school and the busy days ahead. Practice for new members and captains begins on Monday, August 2nd at 8:00 a.m. sharp in the LHS Cafeteria. Practice for returners begins on Tuesday, August 3rd. Attendance and tardies are recorded daily and count toward your participation and grade. The following is a list of things you need to wear or bring with you to practice every day:
· Any color dancewear (biker shorts, jazz pants, tank tops, etc.) Hair out of face.
· Running/stunting/cheering and dance shoes
· Sunblock and/or hat
· Water and snacks
· Calendar/planner
If you ordered uniforms, you will need to pay for your purchase as no uniform will be distributed unless paid for completely. The deadline to pay for uniforms is October 8, 2010. Remember, too, you may need socks, bows, jazz shoes and other items needed for performances such as Icebreaker Assembly. Additionally, please plan to purchase your ASB sticker before school starts. You may want to consider the ASB/yearbook combination as the price will never be lower.
Please plan ahead for fundraising. W will be having a cookie dough sale at the beginning of the year to raise money for the team and individual accounts. Additionally, we will be selling patron ads for the Fall Football program. We will discuss Patron Ads when we return to practice.
Enclosed is an important two-sided paper. One side is an invoice of the uniform pieces you ordered. The other side is a statement of the money in your account. The amount in the lower right hand corner of your invoice shows the total amount for your uniform order this year. The amount in the lower right hand corner of your statement is how much you owe after the deposit has been applied towards the balance. If you have questions about either of these, be sure to ask on the first day of practice.
UPCOMING DATES TO PUT ON YOUR CALENDAR
August 2-6 -- summer practice for new members and captains -- 8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
August 3-6 – summer practice for all members – 8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
August 9-13 -- Practice continues for all members -- times TBD

Enjoy the rest of your summer and rest up because you’ll need your energy!
Love, Jansen
Understanding Statements and Invoices
Statement: The paper entitled “Statement” shows you all of the activity in your “account” since May 1, 2010. It shows any deposits you have made as well as any charges made to your account. You should see a payment entitled “PMT Cheer Deposit 10” which is your deposit you made before ordering uniforms. It should be in the amount of $100. Listed should also be an entry entitled “INV ### Uniforms 2010.” This is the invoice for the uniform pieces you ordered in the May. The total listed should match the total at the bottom of your invoice. In the lower right-hand corner of the statement, there is a box labeled “Amount Due.” This shows how much you have in your account (shown as a negative number) or how much you owe (shown as a positive number). For example, if you owe $89 for uniforms, the amount due would show as $89. If you have $50 in your account, the amount due would show -$50. If there are any entries missing or you feel the amounts are not correct, please discuss it with me when we begin summer practice.
Invoice: The paper entitled “Invoice” shows you what you ordered in the uniform order, how much each piece costs, and how many of each piece you ordered, as well as charges for shipping and handling and sales tax. The paper entitled “Invoice” shows you what you ordered in the uniform order, how much each piece costs, and how many of each piece you ordered, as well as charges for shipping and handling and sales tax. The total at the bottom reflects the total for each piece plus shipping and tax.
You may pay for your uniform piece by piece. For example, you may pay for only one piece at a time and receive only that piece. You do not have to pay for the entire uniform at once (however, you may do so if you wish.) Payments may be made in cash, personal check (write the student’s name in the memo line), credit/debit card, or cashier’s check/money order.
Please remember that your “account” is set up for your convenience and use. It is revocable at any time. If, for any reason, you leave the team, the money in your “account” will go into the general Cheer account.
