Band Orchestra and Mariachi Booster Group Meetings: We meet every second Tuesday of the month from 6:00-7:00 pm in the band room. This is the place to get involved in planning for upcoming events. Be sure your contact information is current to receive communications about agendas, meeting minutes, and volunteer requests. |
Fees and Fundraising: Depending on the event, money earned goes either into students' ASB accounts or into the general booster fund for items such as Drum Major Camp, band awards, festivals, equipment, scholarships and much more. There are several ways students can earn money to be applied directly to their ASB Band account. The band fees are listed on the documents and fees page under the high school tab. CLICK HERE to be taken to that page. We hope you will come to a booster meeting to help support all of our music students and learn more about our fundraising events. |
