Week of June 7

A huge thank you to all the parents and students who spent their Saturday morning helping the band! The car wash and yard sale at WWMS were a big success in large part to everyone that showed up to help. We appreciate you so much!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Peaches

Peach orders have been submitted to our vendor. We had about 12 students participate. Thank you to those families that sold peaches!

Our delivery date has been set for June 22. Pick up time in the band room will be from 5PM-7PM.

Dues

The second round of dues were due on June 4. You can find a link to the dues schedule on the sidebar of the blog. If you did not make your payment before the end of band camp, you can pay via Givebacks.

Band Sponsorships

Band Sponsorships are another way for the band to raise money for the fall marching season. This money goes towards competition fees, props, instructor costs, transportation, and more! Please consider reaching out to the company you work for to see if they would be willing to sponsor the band. We have multiple levels of sponsorship available. You can find our current sponsorship form here. Sponsorship forms are due August 1. 

Facebook

Our public Facebook page can be found here. For our 2026-2027 band members and parents, you can find our private Facebook page here. You must answer the questions to be allowed onto the page. This page is not for extended family (you can refer them to our public page). We use this page for reminders, shout outs, etc.

Fundraisers

We now have 3 band fundraisers under our belt for the fall marching season. I will announce our totals at our next booster meeting in July, but it's quite a bit less than what we had hoped for at this point. 

Unfortunately, we have seen fundraiser participation amongst families dwindle significantly over the years. It takes the entire band family to make a fundraiser a big hit. The more participation, the more money the band is able to raise, and the FEWER fundraisers we need to host. We try to stick to our big fundraisers (peaches, mums, strawberries) but when participation lessens, we have to look at more to do. Please consider participating in our future fundraisers for the sake of the band program.
