Not long after they’ll be playing during their school’s football game Friday night, the Pope and Lassiter bands will be holding fundraisers on Saturday.
From 9-4, the Pope Band Recycling Event will accept all kinds of electronics, metal and paper goods, for $10 a car. They’ll shred paper while you watch, and additional disposal fees will apply to certain items. The school’s located at 3001 Hembree Road, and here’s a detailed list of what they’ll accept, and what they won’t.
From 10-5 Saturday, the Lassiter Band Mattress Sale takes place in the band room at the school (2601 Shallowford Road). There will be a full showroom set-up with factory direct prizes. The proceeds will go to help the band’s upcoming trip to the Tournament of Roses Parade. A mattress sale earlier this year netted $12K, and fundraisers later this fall include the raffling of a Jeep Wrangler from Ed Voyles.
Oh, and about those football games? Five of the six East Cobb teams are in action tonight:
- Pope (0-0) at Lassiter (0-1), 7:30 p.m.;
- Sprayberry (0-1) at Wheeler (1-0), 7:30 p.m.;
- Walton (1-0) at Collins Hill (0-0), 7:30 p.m.
The Kell Longhorns are off this week.
