About Fundraising
Why Fundraising?
Other expenses exist which are not covered by marching band fees, such as transportation, instrument repair, extra event fees, concert band expenses, trip fees, etc. We try to keep these fees to a minimum for each student, so we are called upon to generate extra funds. Some events benefit the General Fund, some the Student Accounts, and some both. The biggest fundraisers are the Mattress Sale and the GoPlaySave coupon book sale. Every family is expected to participate in one of these annual fundraisers to benefit the general fund. There is no limit to raising funds for your Student Accounts. When your last student graduates, the leftover funds are yours to donate to another student's account or to the general fund. Learn More About Why We Fundraise
Annual Fundraisers - Benefit both General Fund and Student Accounts
