If you can't hang it yourself, please make arrangements to have someone hang it for you, or drop it off at the MHS Office during the school day with a label for "Band Boosters". Remember:
|
- Posters should be 22" wide by 28" tall.
- Take advantage of the SmugMug albums assembled by our Booster photographers to collect photos (link here).
