My Project

Over time, drum heads wear out and do not sound as good as they should.

We are asking for support in providing new drum heads to help make our drum kit sound better.

We use this kit for jazz band and concert band.

We have included a green bass drum head to help add some school spirit to our equipment. These drum heads will replace our aging current heads and make our drum kit sound much better.

We appreciate your consideration and support of our school and music education program.

Thank you!

Mr. King Marsh Junior High School Grades 6-8
