WHS Band's New Music Stands

Help me give my students better music stands to replace the old beat up and broken ones from the 1970s or even older.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Martin's classroom raised $856

This project is fully funded

My Project

Almost all of our music stands are from the 1970s or older. Many of them are very bent up, don't move up and down properly, or wobbly horribly on their feet. Effort has been made to restore and repair many of them, but several are beyond repair and not able to be used anymore. They are either too bent to be used again, or require parts that would be difficult to find. This project would get us started on slowly replacing the ones that are having to be thrown away.

We are constantly swapping out stands for kids who end up with the broken ones, and these new stands would replace the worst ones, so that the students no longer have to deal with their music not staying where it should!
