Student Sponsorship
When students participate in band,
there are some fees that parents or guardians have to pay -- instrument
rental, transportation to away events, uniform cleaning.
Times are tough and money is tight. Two suggestions:
1. Your student could ask friends or family members to be a sponsor. If this sounds interesting, click here for a sponsorship form your student can use.
2. Contact the band director about making payments or other arrangements: WilcoHea@wcboe.k12.md.us
The Band Boosters want to make sure that every student who wants to play in the SHHS bands gets to play, no matter what.
Rebel Band Uniform Fund
Band uniforms are made to last about 10 years. The Rebel Band uniforms are now 12 years old. Donations to the fund are 100% tax deductible, because the Band Boosters is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. Please click here or on "Rebel Band Uniform fund" in the menu bar at the far left.
Sheetz Coupon Books
One Sheetz coupon buys a hot or cold sandwich or salad and a drink: $4 -- a good deal. The Band gets $1 for each coupon sold. Single coupons available for $4. Book of 10 coupons for $40.
