The majority of the cost to fund the LNHS Band Program is covered through fundraising to keep student fees as low as possible. The required funding per student in the LNHS Band Program is roughly $5,000 per year and only about one-third of that is covered by student fees. Our fundraising efforts provide funding for the Wildcat Marching Band and Color Guard, the Winter Guard, the Concert Bands (including Wind Symphony, Symphonic Band, and Concert Band), and other performing ensembles.

​

There are a number of fundraisers sponsored by the Band Boosters Organization each year. The funds raised from these activities are vital to the operation of the total LNHS Band Program. They pay for staff and instructors, new instruments and equipment, maintenance and repairs, music and licenses, transportation to concerts and competitions, and scholarships to ensure that any student can participate in the band regardless of their financial situation. Without these fundraisers, the quality of equipment, the number of staff members, and the overall quality of education would suffer.​

​

Along with the various fundraising opportunities throughout the year, we also rely on individual and corporate sponsorships. If you would like to help us raise funds for the students of LNHS Bands, please consider joining our Band Booster Fundraising Committee.​ Email our Chair of Fundraising, Bess Darr,  for more information about fundraising and/or sponsorships.
