Saving Our Marching Band
Archbishop Ryan High School opened its doors in 1966. A few years later a marching band was created. Since that time it has represented the school and the community at many events. From opening malls, playing for Presidents, local and national parades and of course the football games. Along with those performances it became a competitive marching band. The band competed through out the area in local and regional circuits.
To help save our competitive marching band!
Due to budget cuts and declining enrollment the school can no longer support the program. So to keep this band on the road we need to fund it. So we are asking any one that was in a marching band, had their program cut, or just want to keep the music going to help us.
All we're asking for is a $1.00 and to pass this on to your friends. We know there are enough band geeks in this world to help us to keep going. So please put a dollar bill, four quarters, or ten dimes in a envelope and mail it to us. If everyone that see's this helps us a little, it will add up to a lot.
