Submit your ad for the 2024-25
BAHS Music Department Community Ad Book
ORDERS ACCEPTED
JULY 1 TO SEPT 20
Every year, the Bel Air Music Department participates in an out-of-state trip and competition. To defray the cost of the trip for students, we raised funds by selling advertisements in a program book handed out at Music Department events. In 2024-25, the ad book:
Will be distributed at 10+ concerts and community activities open to the public and school community, reaching an estimated 400+ patrons per performance
50% of the cost of each ad will benefit the student selling the ad, and 50% will be donated to the BAHS Music Boosters

Information for students selling ads
Although our trip is still pending HCPS approval (as of June 2024), the Music Boosters are offering a variety of ways to fundraise to pay for our anticipated trip to Disney in 2025--including this ad book fundraiser.
Why Sell Ads
50% of every ad you sell will go into your trip account, including if your family places an ad. See our trip account and fundraising policy for the fine print. The other half will go to the Music Boosters to cover program printing costs and support the BAHS Music Department through equipment, supplies, sheet music, and more.
How to Sell
Download a PDF of our printable community ad book flyer (tip: print it double-sided), and be sure to write in your name before handing out!
You may begin selling ads on July 1. All orders, payment and ad artwork must be received by the Sept 20 deadline in order for you to receive credit for the ad.
Students have successfully sold ads to business owners their family knows, student's employer or parent's employer, family and friends, and by "cold calling" or walking into businesses. Last year, one student paid for the entire Williamsburg trip by selling ads.
We strongly encourage music department students to start selling ads in July to give you the best chance at raising money to help pay for the cost of your trip. Don't wait til school starts!
