Fundraiser Starting Tuesday

Tuesday we will be starting our Snap! Raise fundraiser to raise money for a new band trailer. The old band truck has seen better days and unfortunately won’t get us through another year.

Community members can expect to get an e-mail from band members simply asking for donations. This is a great program and our cheerleaders raised a good amount of money using the same program in the Fall.
