Mattress Fundraiser

Our Mattress fundraiser is this weekend! Have you shared the event on Facebook? Invited your family and friends? Remember, not only does the band earn money, but your child earns money for each sale they refer!

Thirty One Fundraiser

We are trying something new! A Thirty One Fundraiser! Many of our parents use Thirty One bags when traveling, especially to marching competitions. They are having a customer special on travel bags this month. We receive 25% of all orders! Join the Facebook party!

Disney 2019

The marching band will be going to Disney Oct 24-28, 2019. All registrations need to be completed by April 1, 2019 so that we have a good headcount and know how much paperwork we need to prepare.

We will have a paperwork night after our May booster meeting on May 13th. This will be mandatory to receive all paperwork, medical forms, permission slips, etc. We will have our notaries there to notarize medical forms as well. Booster meeting will start at 7. Disney meeting will start at 7:30.
