  2. Where the fireman stand at intersections to collect money for various causes. You put whatever you want to give in the boot they're holding.
  3. Didn't know what would be the most appropriate forum for this so mods, please tell me if I need to move it. At any rate, I work in a small town outside of New Orleans. The local HS band has been doing fund raising for a trip to Disney. THESE FUNDS WERE THEN "ALLEGEDLY" EMBEZZLED BY A BAND BOOSTER!!!!!!!!!!! I need not tell you all here how heart breaking this is. The community is helping them find the funds to keep going and understanding how much HS band meant to all of us I thought I would post this here. And FWIW, this HS is less than 10 miles away from Ground Zero of Hurricane Katrina. Article about the embezzlement: http://www.seacoaste...ml#.UgpdOGSFSjE The treasurer of the Bay High School Band Booster Club was arrested Wednesday for allegedly stealing about $12,000 in funds raised by band members over the past year, Bay St. Louis Police Chief Mike De Nardo said Wednesday. According to De Nardo, Kimberly Luxich, 41, was charged with embezzlement. Luxich, who was the treasurer of the booster club for the past year, was responsible for safe-guarding money collected by the booster club. De Nardo said BPD received a call Monday from the booster club president about the possible embezzlement and detectives executed a search warrant Tuesday at Luxich's home. he band members had raised the money over the past year by selling candy, doing car washes, boot shakes, and various other fund raisers, De Nardo said. The money was to be used for an upcoming trip to Disney World. "This is horrible," BPD Detective Don Gray said Wednesday. "These kids worked all summer long to raise this money and now they may not be able to go on their trip." De Nardo said a CPA has been looking through the booster club's books to see if any additional funds are missing. He said if anyone wants to assist the band with its trip, call Cynthia Rose, the president of the booster club. Luxich was given an initial court appearance Wednesday in front of municipal Judge George Lipscomb and later transported to the Hancock County Jail. Fundraising article: Hancock Chamber Small business owners are joining forces to help the Bay High Band raise funds to replace the $12,000 lost to an alleged embezzlement. Under the leadership of Mike Bell, more than $5,000 has already been raised. Bell says the community needs to come together quickly to make sure that these students don't miss out on the opportunity to travel to Orlando to participate in a Disney Band Competition. Local Fire Departments are planning a Sunday Boot Shake to help in the effort. Please make checks payable to the Bay High Band Booster Club. Donations need to be in by Friday. Call Mike Bell at 228-216-6040 or email him at bell.electric@yahoo.com to pick up your donation. Or drop your donation at the Hancock Chamber Office, 111 Court Street, Bay St. Louis.
