Band Fundraiser Information

You need to participate in fundraising with your child because, after marching band fees are applied to our annual budget, we still have to fundraise several tens of thousands of dollars to fund the activity.  Each member is given a “fair share” number that indicates how much money above their band fee is their share of the cost of running the band.  Without EVERYONE’s participation, we would cease to be able to provide the services to students and would be unable to present the quality product that we do every year.  To better understand the costs involved in the operation of a successful marching band each year, see our annual budget.   You will see why it takes everyone making a team effort to raise money.

 The Booster Treasurer is responsible for all funds of the organization, including booster fees when assessed.  The 2010-2011 Treasurer is Annette Crimmins.

Practical pointers from veteran parents about financial matters:

In order to get funds deposited you can either give them directly to the treasurer or your student can put the checks (and any receipts) in an envelope, with the amount of the deposit and student’s name on the envelope and inside, and mail it to the Booster P.O. Box.   Grant County Band Boosters, P.O. Box 194, Dry Ridge, KY 41035.

You can find out how much your child owes for Marching Band by contacting the treasurer.

The Grant County Band Boosters do not keep student accounts.   All fundraiser proceeds go to the general fund of the organization for the betterment of the entire program.
