Last year, our regular band general fundraisers raised about $24,000 last year and met the budget needed. Most band parents don’t do every fundraiser — they help where they can and want to but, we need everyoneʼs help for the auction. Remember, if you don’t do your share someone else has to pick up the slack. ITS IMPORTANT THAT ALL PARENTS AND STUDENTS DO THEIR FAIR SHARE HELPING WITH THE FUND RAISING OF THE DEPARTMENT!
