BandAid   This is the parent volunteer committee that raises money to support and  enhance all concert band music education in the Ferndale Schools, grades 5-12.  Board Members
President/Secretary: MaryBeth Traines
Treasurer: Sue Ignash


Money raised goes towards the following:
Master Classes are small group lessons led by a professional player of a particular instrument.  We pay for these professionals to come in and give semi-private lessons to our students.  These lessons occur during the regular class time and allows students to get more specific help with their tone, breathing techniques, scales memorization and overall practice on specific areas of music for performances.
Replacement Needs for each band.  Items such as instruments, electronics for teaching/recording/microphones, student scholarships, etc...


 Order form for the new BandAid t-shirts for All City.  THE COLORS ARE THE SAME AS LAST YEAR - so you don't have to order a new one if you don't want to!!

DUE DATE IS THIS THURSDAY 12/18 (the form says the 15th - ignore that!)

Return the orders to your band teacher.  It's an awesome design - parents are encouraged to buy one for themselves!!

Recycling Fundraiser:
