Aloha Everyone!

This could not have been successful without all the volunteers that came out…from the “too early” morning volunteers to those who stayed longer and everyone in between.  You are the glue that held us together…even with the occasional heavy showers and gusty winds (kudos to the sign wavers/distributors/grillers for working through it all).  

A huge round of applause to all those that donated corn and boxes for the fundraiser and for the water, food and coffee for our hungry volunteers.  

Special shout out to those that loaned us their grills, tents, tables, equipment to heat corn, containers to hold cooked food, and a “kitchen” sink.  

And, last but not least, a very special thank you to LikeLike Drive Inn for holding and delivering our steaks along with their container donation and KYM Bento, Sushi & Catering for their donation of rice which was cooked and delivered by them throughout the event.  

​We are truly grateful to all of you and thank you for making this a successful fundraiser!

Hi Everyone,

MAHALO for an amazing job selling/promoting our Steak Plate Fundraiser!  We've sold 700 pre-orders!
Now comes the fun part... we need a small army of Chef Morimotos and Bobby Flays to help us prep, cut, cook, and serve our plates!

We still need helpers!  Espeically with the steak prep and steak cutting.  If If you'd like to help but have not signed up yet, please visit our VOLUNTEER SIGN-UP page.

​We have a number of items, especially charcoal grills and tents,  If you have any of these items that we could borrow, we'd greatly appreciate it!

We are also asking for donations of canned corn.  Please visit our DONATION/WANT LIST to sign up.

.Thank you everyone for supporting RHS Music!  Please help get the word out and get those orders in!  Every ticket sold gets us closer to our fundraising goal for the year.  We've extended orders to next Wednesday--please turn in all unsold tickets and payments by that day as well.

Online payments are accepted!  CLICK HERE TO VISIT OUR SQUARE PAGE 

We do need a lot of manpower to make this event possible.  If you can fill a position and shift, we greatly appreciate it.  Please click on the link below to view times and stations.

ALOHA and WELCOME to the start of a new year!!  We will be kicking off our first fundraiser of the year with Steak Plates.  The steak plate includes a generous portion of steak, steamed rice, and corn. 
Each student will receive a packet containing 5 steak plate tickets to sell.  The cost is $10.00 per ticket. 
We anticipate to earn $5.00 from each ticket sold.  Our goal is to raise $10,000 for the music department.
