Mission
By definition, the role of the booster organization is to boost the band program in a positive manner. The purpose of the Buchholz Band Boosters is to advance the best interests of the Buchholz High School bands by providing support, as requested by the band director. All parents or guardians of students enrolled in the band program are members of the Band Boosters organization. Maintaining a thriving band program requires support and funding beyond that provided by the school system. The Band Boosters organization, a non-profit corporation, was formed in 1971 to provide this support. Specific objectives include the following:
- Purchase and maintenance of uniforms
- Provision of funds for the purchase/repair of instruments/equipment, as requested by Director
- Provision of funds for the purchase of music and supplies, as requested by Director
- Furnishing chaperones/volunteers for band events
- Organization and implementation of fundraising activities
- Maintenance of website
- Encouragement of new parent involvement
- Stimulate and maintain an enthusiastic interest and support for all phases of the band program
- Support and advocate for music programs in the public schools
