Congratulation to this year's winners of the MUSICCARD Fundraiser Blitz. Samantha Light is this year's top seller as she (with a little help from Dad) sold 70 cards.

They are Kevin Norris, Billy Sheehan, Joe Franke, Shareema Branch, Josh DeCarlo, Jonathan Ramirez and Kelli Schrader. Of particular note is that Kevin Norris gave Samantha a run for the money as he sold 64 cards. Congratulations and thanks to all the students who made the effort to go out and sell the cards.
