My Project

Marching band involves long hours of after school practice. The practice and process starts in the spring and often continues throughout a school year. Field paint is needed to help mark the lines on a field on which students practice. Weather, time, and heavy foot traffic create a need for us to repaint the field once a week.

Snacks are essential to provide energy for students to keep working after the school day has ended.

We try to provide a snack for every student during practice, long bus trips, and during games in the Fall.

Your donation to this project will help provide materials for our students to be successful and have a positive music experience.
