Fundraising
There are different types of fundraisers held throughout the year to make it easier for commitment to be met. While fundraising is not mandatory it does benefit the band allowing us to purchase new instruments, costumes and equipment as needed, and pays down your student’s commitment at no cost and minimal effort to you and your student.
There are two basic types of fundraisers that we run though out the season. The first type of fundraiser is one that benefits your student account towards commitment (these are the fundraisers that generally are from selling a product). For this fundraiser type 60% of the profits earned go towards commitment and 40% goes towards the general band fund. The second type is one that all proceeds go towards the general band fund.
Below are the things planned through out the season. Keep in mind that this may change around a bit. If you would like to help with any of these fundraisers or have any suggestions on fundraisers to do in the future, please don’t hesitate to get let somebody know!
