TICKETS

As a reminder, Bands in Review is the one concert each year that requires tickets. Performers will not need a ticket but parents, siblings and other guests will. We ask that you buy tickets if you can and sell some to friends, teachers, or neighbors.  Funds from tickets that Tappan students sell comes right back to support the Tappan Bands! Students have received tickets and information as of last week. The informational letter regarding tickets is attached below:
