2022 Budget: We have a year under our belt

1.Fundraising for next year.

    • Goal = $150,000.
      1. Last year we had no goal and no real path.
      2. We have begun discussing what we are going to do.
      3. Our first deadline is to have the strategy completed and scheduled for everyone to understand how they can choose to participate.
    • Fundraising is not an option.
      • Unless band parents are willing to shell out 10’s of thousands of dollars- A donation will always be accepted, BTW,

WE ALL HAVE TO RAISE FUNDS

      • Our goal is to find ways for people to raise funds
        1. More concerts and shows with tickets- community recognition.
        2. Activity based fundraisers- Festivals or Activity days.
        3. Secure crowd sourcing fundraisers
        4. Optimize the current fundraisers- moving away from selling things.

​

These are very important positions for our band. The president cannot do all four. It is another 40-hour week. The other board members are working hard in their own roles.

​

We just need more hands at the plow.

​

Please consider taking a position.
