CJ Bands
Evergreen Fundraiser
October 13th-November 2nd
We are starting our very first 6-12 band fundraiser this year! This is the first time that students can earn money for their own band accounts that they can use to pay for band fees or trips in the future. All profits are going to directly benefit your specific student. Here are some important details that you will need to know:
Note about *new* band accounts:
We are going to be using a new system called Cut Time (more information to come soon on that) which you will use to see your student’s account balance. This balance will follow them throughout the years of band. The money can be used for band fees and supplies that we order. If a student drops band, it will go into a full band account and used for other purposes. If a graduating student has a younger sibling in band, their balance will transfer to their sibling.
Frequently Asked Customer Questions
Q: When will I receive my wreaths and evergreens?
Our group will be receiving the fresh evergreens that are Group Delivery Items THE WEEK BEFORE THANKSGIVING. We will distribute the evergreens to you within 1-2 days of delivery. We'll be in touch to let you know of the delivery. The Gift Items will go directly to recipients and arrive within the first two weeks after Thanksgiving.
Q: Why should I buy from your group instead of a store?
Your purchase directly benefits a CJ band student. You get a fresh quality holiday evergreen AND you get to spend your money on a good cause.
Q: Why are you selling these wreaths and evergreens in September and October?
Selling during this time ensures that our group has enough time to run our fundraiser before orders are due around the end of October, or beginning of November. This gives Sherwood Forest Farms enough time to collect orders and produce the fresh wreaths and evergreens in advance of the holiday season.
Q: Who should I contact with questions?
You can contact me at [INSERT YOUR CONTACT INFO HERE]. You can also contact the person in charge of the fundraiser- Mrs. Widmar: [email protected]
Q: Are these products guaranteed?
Yes. Sherwood Forest Farms 100% guarantees all products for freshness. If your product is not fresh or damaged, please contact me or our group to remedy the problem. Our group will contact the company to replace the product or credit our group so we can credit you.
Q: Where are these items produced?
They are produced in the Northwest corner of Washington State. The raw materials are fresh Pacific Northwest evergreens, and they are harvested by trimming trees that are farmed for commercial use. The trimming keeps the trees and ecosystem healthy. Sherwood Forest Farms does not use old growth trees, nor do they cut trees down.
Q: Are the products fresh?
Yes. The evergreens are harvested and assembled just before shipping.
Q: When should I pay for my items?
Our group always collects at the time of sale during our fundraiser and all orders will be taken online. This makes it easier for you when it comes time to distribute the items.
Q: How long will my wreaths and evergreens last?
All the items are guaranteed to be fresh and last to Christmas.
Q: How do I care for my wreaths and evergreens?
Each item comes with its own care and handling instructions. We recommend you spritz your evergreens with water on a regular basis and also keep the items away from direct heat sources. If you have a glass or plastic screen door, be sure to hang your item on the outside of the screen door. If it hangs between your doors, it can generate heat in the sun and affect the longevity of your item.
Q: How long will you be selling the wreaths and evergreens?
Our sales drive dates are October 13th- November 2nd. Should you want to place another order after the end of the sale, feel free to contact me and we will see what we can do. We may have a few leftover items or be able to place an additional order with the company.

October 13th-November 2nd
We are starting our very first 6-12 band fundraiser this year! This is the first time that students can earn money for their own band accounts that they can use to pay for band fees or trips in the future. All profits are going to directly benefit your specific student. Here are some important details that you will need to know:
- Orders will all be taken online and paid online. Our website is: https://sherwoodfundraiser.com/cjband
- The website opens Monday, October 13th and closes Sunday, November 2nd at midnight.
- There are two options for purchasing: direct delivery or local delivery. If you have family members that live far away, they can order and have it shipped directly to them! The cost of these items is higher, because it includes shipping. Otherwise, all of the orders credited to your student will be bundled together for you to pick up and deliver locally.
- Families are grouped together. If you need two siblings grouped together that Mrs. Widmar didn’t catch, please email her and she will get it changed.
- For each item sold, your student will earn $10 for their band account. This can be used on future band purchases.
- BE SURE to select your student at checkout so we know which student will get the credit.
- The orders will be in the week before Thanksgiving- when we know the exact day, we will set up a pick up time in the evening and let you know asap. You will be able to deliver them over Thanksgiving break.
- See the back of this page for answers to frequently asked questions from customers.
