My Project

A tambourine is a very important part of the percussion section in any concert band. It is used for many different styles of playing from renaissance music all the way through modern music of today.

We need to replace the old tambourine that we have.

It has been used for many years and has lived its life. It is time for a new one of high quality that will last us many years.

With your support, we will be able to obtain this tambourine and use it for elementary, junior high, and senior high band for many, many years to come!
