Band Update:April 13, 2020
The two time State Championship South Laurel Band is looking forward to it's next competitive season!
Our efforts require a lot of funding for costuming, props, consulting staff and equipment. Due to the unprecedented nature of Covid-19 we missed out on our largest fundraiser of the year- our annual Jazz Dinner. This fundraiser held in May allowed us to kick off our fall season with the funds it raised. Unfortunately this event cannot happen.
We are planning for our fall 2020 season, but we need you help! If you’re able to donate to the South Laurel Band Supporters – non profit 501c3 organization whose entire existence is to support the SLHS band program and all of its endeavors- it would be greatly appreciated. We understand this is a tough time for everyone, so don’t feel obligated if it will cause a hardship. We thank you so much for your continued support and can’t wait to get back on the practice lot to start whipping up another magical production!
