The marching band is an co-curricular activity that practices primarily after school. Due to the nature of the activity, bringing in instructors, show t-shirts, uniform maintenance, music, drill, uniform parts, travel, registrations, and lots of other stuff, it takes a lot of money to run a competition level marching band. We try very hard to keep individual expenses as low as possible, but unfortunately there is a marching band fee. If you need financial assistance, we can create a payment plan that will work for your family. We will also be starting a very aggressive fundraising campaign beginning at Band Camp.
