Hunger Games

The Student United Way organization at Clear Springs is holding their annual “Hunger Games” food drive.  Last year through this drive, over 7,000 pounds of food was donated to the Houston Food Bank.

Student United Way makes a competition out of the food drive asking the organizations and teams on campus to participate and compete against the other participating organizations to see who can bring in the most pounds of food. The organizations that participate are divided into “districts” like the districts in the actual “Hunger Games” movies. This year, the band has decided to participate as one of the “districts” in the food drive.

The food drive will be taking place from October 26^th – November 13^th. This gives us three weeks to bring in the most amount of food and hopefully be the organization that wins. The winning organization will get bragging rights and a trophy.

Within the band, we will be having our own competition with the Hunger Games. We are dividing the grade levels into four districts: District 9 (freshman), District 10 (sophomores), District 11 (juniors), and District 12 (seniors). Only one district can win, “may the odds be ever in your favor.”

Bring your canned food and dry goods to the band hall with your name and grade level written on it and place in the box for your grade level. We hope to see everyone participate in this event and give back to the community that continually supports our band program.
