School concert

So I set it up so the robotics team is getting half of the income from the school show on October 23rd (ft. yours truly). However we need members to sell tickets and brownies. Also just get people to come as the more tickets we sell the more money we get. If you are free to sell stuff or make foodstuffs then find me.
