FAQ
May I buy tickets with a personal check?
Yes. Contact the Hot Notes organizers at swhsmusicboosters@gmail.com or visit the Hot Notes page at swhsmusic.com to download a ticket form. Please mail your registration and payment so we receive them by January 30. No service charges will apply.
How will proceeds be used?
Other than teacher salaries, the entire music program is funded by donations at concerts and through fundraisers. Among other things, proceeds will:
  • Replace and repair worn musical instruments
  • Pay for the new choral risers for our growing programs
  • Fund scholarships for individual voice and instrument lessons, and workshops with local professional musicians
  • A portion of proceeds benefit the Dance program and this year’s spring musical: Thoroughly Modern Millie
Will there be convenient parking at the event?
Yes. St. Mary's has abundant, free parking in two lots.
Isn't that the same night as the Luminary Loppet?
Alas, yes, but since our venue is so close to the Loppet action, we hope our skiing friends will do both. The Luminary course on Lake of the Isles opens at 6:00. Hot Notes doors open at 7:00 and the show begins at 7:45. Word is there will be groomed trails on Lake Calhoun, so you can practically ski to Hot Notes! No need to gussy up—ski attire welcome!
How else may I contribute?
See the "Dynamic Donation" option above to make an online contribution. If you'd like to dontate to Off the Wall or host a great gathering, please contact the co-chairs.
What forms of payment will be accepted at the event?
Cash, check, and credit cards.
Can I volunteer?
Yes! There are many ways to help out, big and small, and all of it is appreciated. Please contact the co-chairs for more information. Note that volunteers the night of the event must purchase an admission ticket. If that is financially difficult for you, please let us know. We want everyone who is interested to join the fun!
