March-A-Thon Meeting – Tuesday, June 27th

Our next March-A-Thon organizational meeting is this Tuesday, June 27th at 6:30 pm in the band hall. If you are interested in helping with March-A-Thon, please attend! We have a lot to do to get ready for what we hope will be the biggest fundraiser of the year.

WE CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW IMPORTANT IT IS THAT WE MAKE THIS FUNDRAISER SUCCESSFUL. The state legislature education funding bill is cutting funding to school districts. Meanwhile, we have greater needs than ever as our band grows in numbers and begins to compete at the area and state level. Please volunteer and encourage your friends and family to donate to March-A-Thon. Our kids and their awesome directors put tremendous time and effort into fielding the best marching show in the fall and concert performances in the spring, and they deserve our support! For more information on March-A-Thon, please refer to the update Mr. Eaks emailed on May 31st. See you Tuesday!

Corporate Sponsorships Needed!

We need additional corporate sponsorships for the 2017-18 school year. If you own or work for a company that is interested in sponsoring the Cougar Band, please contact our Booster President, Markus Nimocks, at This email address is being protected from spambots.

We have had a couple people reach out to us already and we have not forgotten you – we will be sending out renewals and information on new sponsorships in the next week. We would love to add your company to the list! Sponsorships begin at only $100/year and benefits vary by sponsorship level. Higher levels include advertising space in our programs and newsletters, a link on our website, signage on the fences approaching the stadium and our tower next to the practice area, and recognition at half-time of football games.
