MMS Mustang Band Everyday Supply List

Help me give my students a conductor's music stand, reeds, rubber mallets, and other items for classroom use.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Davis's classroom raised $511

My Project

The following items are absolutely necessary music equipment for students to use when needed in our band room. Reeds are the first priority, as beginning musicians typically need them more often. The cork grease and valve and slide oil are useful for daily instrument maintenance. We really need a director's stand that will make everyday rehearsals more efficient for the band instructor. The instructor is currently using a regular stand which cannot fit all daily materials/music on it, making it near impossible for the band members to practice efficiently. Thank you for your help in making this year run smooth and keeping the music flowing from our band room! If you need to find out about our program go here:
