(Schedule effective Oct. 1, 2019)

Use scrip to build your credit! 

Scrip is a certificate issued by a merchant and purchased through CYS that allows you to buy merchandise equal to the face of the certificate. Families receive a percentage of the face value of the certificate as credit to a musician's account.  It is entirely possible to pay all membership dues with scrip alone! 

CYS scrip on site schedule:

  • 3:20pm - 3:40pm for Intro Winds and Wind Ensemble at Santa Rita (Scrip Volunteer: TBD)
  • Note: Scrip volunteer only carries Scrip Order Forms and accepts Scrip orders for the week, then delivers the following week upon fulfillment of the order. Sales do not take place during this time.

In order for the credit to be applied correctly, please purchase scrip with personal checks (no non-member checks, please). Be sure to put your musician’s name and group in the memo of your check.

Schedule may change for special events (e.g., concerts, sectionals, parent meetings). Please refer to the weekly newsletters or check with the CYS office.
