BINGO SPONSORSHIPS: Students are encouraged to "claim" two business sponsorships during their time in the CSHS Band/Orchestra. The idea is for each student to ask one business in the summer/fall for assistance with the Fall Bingo, and then ask the second business in the winter for assistance with the Spring Bingo. Students, please claim your businesses HERE!

Our 2022 Bingo was cancelled.
Due to low ticket sales and sponsorships, we had to make the very difficult decision to cancel the March 20th Bingo. Thank you to all those who have supported our organization. Those who purchased tickets should have already received refunds.
If you have any fundraiser ideas, let us know!!!
We held the first BINGO for the 2020-21 school year on Sunday, March 14, 2021!
