programs at CE Jordan.

these vouchers (we hope you will share
vouchers with friends
and family). Shop at Barnes & Noble,
Southpoint anytime on December 6th from 10:00 am to 11:00 pm and the band
boosters will benefit. Please feel free to copy this voucher and distribute
as many places as possible (i.e. family, church, neighbors and co-workers).
You may also e-mail the
voucher to friends and family anywhere.
The voucher will be accepted at all Barnes & Noble locations and online,
but we hope you will join our celebration at Southpoint.
Purchases with
the vouchers will be accepted until Sunday, December 11th
in all the stores and online if you can’t join us on Tuesday, December 6th.
