   Thank you Friends of Music!
           
   We have exceeded our challenge!

The Hudson High School Music Association has successfully reached its
$60,000 challenge to raise money for the new Memorial Stadium.  This
stadium will provide a state of the art facility for our schools and include
more than adequate handicapped accessible seating for both fans and
visitors.  This facility will also provide a venue for our marching band to
practice and perform - no more parking lot practices!!!  The best news is
that the HHSMA will be working with the Athletic Boosters in a 50/50
partnership to provide all stadium concessions providing a long-term source
of funds for all our programs.

Monies can still be donated in the name of the Hudson High School Music
Association and will help defray the cost of  purchasing equipment for the
concessions stands.  Donations credited to the HHSMA will still enable the
donor to receive the perks that come with the different donation levels.  
Pavers are available beginning at the $250 level. Additional benefits such as
preferred parking and reserved stadium seating are available at levels over
$5,000.  An itemization of these benefits is available at
hudsonschoolsfoundation.com/images/Memorial%20Stadium%20Brochure.p
df

To donate, you may
use this form.  Hard copies will also be available at all
HS music concerts.  If you use any other donation form, please indicate
somewhere that your donation should be put toward the HHSMA Challenge.  
If you have donated previously, your donation can still be credited to our
challenge by sending an email to
hudsonstadium@gmail.com.  Checks
should be made out to Hudson Memorial Stadium Fund at P.O. Box 473,
Hudson, OH 44236.  Any donation of $1000 or more can be paid over a 4-
year period.

Thank you for considering
a donation toward this
Challenge and the Memorial
Stadium project.
