Band Family,
With the growth of our program comes increased financial needs. We have aging large instruments that require replacement, are in need of a larger trailer, have increased travel expenses, and a shortage of instruments available for students unable to afford their own. Our major fundraiser this fall is going to be a FanPledge donation drive. Between now and Thursday, you're going to enter at least 20 ADULT contacts that you think might be willing to support our program. On Thursday, October 2 from 4-5 PM we will gather in the high school band room. You'll actually be able to have your phone out at school as we reach out and contact as many of those contacts as we can and seek their support. Even if you cannot be there, still gather your 20 contacts. At the end of the drive, we'll send out text messages to those we were not able to call asking for their support.Â
Below you'll find instructions to get set up on the FanPledge website. There are also two videos for iPhone users that will make it easier to enter contacts in your phone's contacts.
So, in summary, here are your three steps.
1) Sign up for FanPledge using the instructions below - USE YOUR SCHOOL EMAIL.
2) Enter at least 20 contacts of people you think might be willing to support our band program before 10/2/2025
3) If at all possible, be at the High School Band Room from 4-5 on Thursday, October 2 as we try to reach as many possible supporters as we can in an hour.
