*These are the normal fundraisers that the bands participate in each year.We try to have less fundraises and raise more profit.Our profits are averaging over 50%. 

The purpose of Fundraisers:

  • To provide money for the general fund. This account pays for buses, dinner during games, scholarships, uniforms, equipment, insurance, and other item necessary for operation not covered by the school.
  • To give students an opportunity to earn money for their accounts. This account is used to pay for the student's spring trip. Each student will need approximately $600-$650, depending on the location of the trip. 
  • The Executive Board approves all distribution of funds.

    The fundraiser committee prior to the beginning of the school year will determine a schedule of fundraisers. It is the intent of this committee to make available continual opportunities for students to earn money throughout the year. Many students chose to earn "all" of their money at the beginning of the year.
