Paulding Meadows Arts and Crafts Festival Booth

Thank you to all of the volunteers that have signed up to help us sell Funnel Cakes and other fried goodies this weekend at the Paulding Meadows Arts and Crafts Festival. There are still some spots available – join us!

Please make sure to give yourself plenty of time to get to the festival for your time slot. Traffic during the festival is terrible. It can take an hour just to get through the traffic and park. Please plan accordingly, especially for volunteers that are coming in the afternoon.  

For health code reasons, all volunteers must wear a hat (not a visor) or hair net while working in the booth. Beards must be covered by a hair net also.

If you have any questions, please reach out to Nicolle Dunn at jd19@aol.com.

This Thursday is Band Picture Day! Wear your brightest smile!

Link to order form below. Please bring form with payment on picture day.

Our Platinum Sponsor, Mattress Lux of Kennesaw, has partnered with us for a fundraiser THIS SUNDAY, September 3rd at their store on 41 and Jiles Rd (in the Publix plaza).

Mattress Lux has offered to open their showroom from 1-5pm specially for us and will donate a portion of all sales during that time to the band! There will also be a “Wolfpack Bundle” worth up to $400 for everyone who purchases a mattress. The bundle can be used toward sheets, pillows and select accessories in the store.

The difference between this mattress fundraiser and the one we’ve done in the past is that with Mattress Lux, you are shopping a local business who will be there after the sale if you have any trouble. Matt & Gabe are passionate about teaching you how to find the right mattress for you…even if it’s not one of theirs. Please come check them out on Sunday and support our sponsor!

All you have to do is help us spread the word about this event. Please post on your social media, or like and share the post from the Band’s social media accounts. If you’re in the area, stop by and learn about what mattress types will give you the LUX feeling and a rested night sleep in a low pressure sales environment.

Labor Day weekend typically offers great prices on mattresses and lots of people shop for them during this time. Please help us advertise this because you never know who might be looking! THANK YOU!!!
