Other Important Information:

Invited JHCS students (5) to perform in a pre-show.  Turned out pretty well because they sold tickets to people who wanted to see them.

Angie sold candy on way out. Sold a few ESSO watches there.  No luck selling JHCS paraphernalia.

NO food  in the P.G. auditorium . Not allowed to sell in the hallways before or during performance.

Should ask to get a cut of Jon’s sales since we should his CD’s for him.

Need a designated place at Miss Rutledge’s desk for ticket money.  It got a bit messed up. 

Need a better tracking system for who sold what tickets.

Posted current sales winners on doors at JHCS.

The Paypal account worked great!
