It is the wee hours of the morning and I would like all to see this as you wake..or go of to slumber...We had unimaginable success with GiveWhereYouLive today.  Than you to the many,many families who took time today to remember our band organization.  The kindness and generosity towards our Port Huron Northern Band was overwhelming.  Of course this is a rough total, as the number may be higher once all checks and cash are finalized,  but our band raised $12,005 through the amazing giving of our families, their friends and family.  We won  4 prizes throughout the 24 hour race which included $1,000 for the Advia Credit Union Early Bird  prize for most donors by 9 am, we won another $1,000 for the Women's initiative with most women donors at 8-9 pm, we won an additional $1,000 for the  Eastern Michigan's Bank Procrastinators award of $1,000, and finally, the Granddaddy of them all, we had the highest number of overall donors in the 24 hour race and won the James C. Acheson Grand Prize of $1,000!!!   
    Thank you to all of the many donors, the students who make the trip downtown,family, friends teachers and administrators who helped us with this special opportunity.  Thank you to Randa Jundi-Samman for bringing such a great opportunity to the band and making this happen, Thank you to Bob Bryce for spending the entire day with all of our students as he drove them down for a pep band and donation stop at the SC4's Campus.  I do not want to miss anyone and will be adding the a long line of well-deserved thank you's in the next few days.   Many thanks for Mr. Mosset for supporting us in thes endeavor and having computers at the ready for teachers and all in the building.  We thank the administrators for allowing us to participate in such a great fundraiser.  Thank you finally, to Mr.Senkmajer for his endless opportunities he offers to our students every day.  Congratulations Port Huron Northern bands!!
