Pink Trash Bags: Teaching More Than Just Fundraising to Our Dancers

Mindy's Dance Company would like to thank all the friends, family, neighbors and colleagues that purchased trash bags from us this year.  We like selling the pink trash bags just in time for Breast Cancer Awareness Month (we had blue and white too) because $120 of the proceeds from the bag sales will be sent to an organization that will use it for research or other aid for patients.  Its a terrific opportunity for the dancers to learn that we can always help others while we are earning money for the booster club.

If you missed out on this sale but still need some bags, please contact your favorite MDC dancer and let them know what kind you need and how many.  You can also email the booster club at mdcboosterclub@gmail.com to request additional bags.

Thank you for your continued support!

Who Wants to Save Money on Groceries?!

We do!  We do!  Mindy's Dance Company is continuing its fundraising efforts with HyVee Coupon Books.  At $5 each they are a terrific value and they don't expire until December 2013.  Each book contains a variety of coupons as well as $5 coupon that you can apply to your entire purchase - so they pay for themselves in one trip to the store!  Here are some actual savings from recent trip to a neighborhood HyVee store:

$5 coupon off the entire bill = $5
6 additional coupons for items used everyday = $5
Spent $100 on groceries so gas was reduced by $.25 per gallon = $5.60 (22 gallons)

Total savings = $15.60

And there are many more coupons to use on the next trip!

Contact your favorite MDC dancer and buy enough books to last the year - its a great investment and a great organization to support.
