The annual Luminaries Fundraiser is another great opportunity to support our LRHS Bands program and your student account! Local neighborhoods purchase kits consisting of bags, sand, and candles to light on a designated night. Students and parents earn money for their account by preparing and delivering kits, as well newsletters for one community.
Held once or twice a year at a local restaurant, the restaurant donates a portion of the sales from the night to the band.
This event is held in late April/early May. Delicious BBQ Pork and/or Chicken plates are sold to band families, alumni, area neighborhoods, etc. All proceeds go to benefit the General Bands Club which supports all 5 ensembles.
The Capital Campaign allows for repairs to instruments, purchasing of music and funding guest clinicians to work with our students. All donations are welcome!
