• We need 4 Chaperones for LISD Solo & Ensemble this Saturday, March 2nd. All details are in the signup, click below!
• Please save the date to volunteer for the Hebron Band Mulch Fundraiser on March 23rd! We will need a lot of volunteers to make distribution of the mulch a success. ALL band students should plan to sign up for a shift that day, so please put it on your calendars, signup is coming soon!
• The Hebron Band Garage Sale is on April 13th and we will need a lot of volunteers that day. Signup is now live!
• The Hebron Band Golf Tournament is on May 31st. Sign-ups are not up yet for day of volunteers, but pencil it in now so you don’t double book yourself! We also still need more committee members. We’re hard at work and hoping to make this our biggest fundraiser of the year, so please come help us make it a success!

Questions? Please e-mail Nikki Wilson at volunteers@hebronband.org.

Sales are good, but the student goal is over 8000 bags! These fundraisers are by the students and families FOR the students! We have less than a week left in the sale!

WE NEED YOUR HELP! Imagine what we could do if every student got just ONE family to buy mulch! That would mean over $20,000 for the band!!!!

BAND FAMILY CHALLENGE!: This week we are challenging each band family to TEXT FIVE friends/family about the Mulch Fundraiser. Here is a sample text below:

Hello XXXXX!

Only a few days left in the Hebron Band’s first ever mulch fundraiser. STUDENT'S NAME is asking for your help!! Go to www.hebronband.org/mulch. All funds raised go directly towards supporting our hardworking kids in band. Don’t need mulch? You can still donate here https://paybee.io/@hebronband@54 THANK YOU!!!

Here is a sample of what you can post on social media with the attached flyer:

Hebron Band Community! LAST WEEK OF MULCH SALES!!

Please support our award winning band by purchasing mulch from your favorite band student, ME!! All funds raised go directly towards supporting our hardworking kids in band with general operating costs, travel costs, uniforms, clinicians, and much more. We are also saving money to address much needed band trailer updates! We fundraise to provide the best experience possible to our students and community. Without fundraising, many of the amazing things our band does would simply not be possible.

Here's how it works.

1. Click on this link https://www.hebronband.org/mulch

2. Choose your mulch and checkout.

2. Make sure to choose MY NAME at checkout so I get credit for the sale!

3. You can choose home delivery ($30 charge) or pick up at Hebron High School on March 23rd. Home delivery spots are limited so order early.

Orders are open thru March 1st.

Questions? Mulch@hebronband.org. #AIATT

We are asking that every student find one donation for the silent auction from a community business. Ask a business that you frequently support. See attached letters and information that you can give businesses when asking for donations/sponsorships.
