Fundraising

Franklin Central Band Boosters has several fundraisers.  The obvious purpose of these events is to raise funds for the band department, but we also enjoy having fun in the process.  These events give our volunteers and students the opportunity to keep band fees stable. We recognize that fundraisers take valuable time away from our parents' and students' lives.  For this reason, we limit the number of fundraisers and ask for full participation and focus on a few large dollar events. This approach generates maximum revenue that will benefit ALL band students.  Every student wins when every band family volunteers as least once during the year.

Volunteers

The Franklin Central Band's activities are only possible with the involvement of parent volunteers.  The band agreement states that every band family must participate in at least one event every year.  

Also, be aware the Franklin Central Band parents have a proud tradition of volunteerism.  There may not be enough volunteer positions available for all parents.  It's suggested that you sign up early to be included.
