The Purpose of Band Boosters: The band boosters were formed to raise funds for the band. To promote fund raising, band boosters obtained a 501(c)(3) not for profit status. All donations are tax deductible. Band boosters primary purpose is to raise funds in support of the activities of the band, including paying for extra staff support, competition entry fees, hotel rooms for overnight trips, food for out of town trips, uniforms, as needed, and travel costs. The boosters also support the band by acting as chaperones on out of town trips, cooking for the students on out of town trips, hauling equipment on trips, altering band uniforms, and assisting at concerts. Our primary fund raiser is the Central Coast Classic Marching Band Field Competition. We also raise money through the sale of dessert items at all football games, a membership drive, selling of band logo merchandise, a spring barbeque, carwash and the winter formal. This year we will also be eligible for a fireworks stand. |
