All Yorktown Band and Color Guard members are getting ready to knock on doors in their Arlington neighborhoods to ask you for your financial support. Don’t be surprised to see a pair of uniformed high school students on your doorstep to tell you about the benefits – and costs – of their music education. This annual fundraiser contributes at least a quarter of the Band Boosters annual budget.

You’ll have the opportunity to meet students representing Marching, Wind, and Jazz Bands; Indoor Percussion, and other ensembles. Should you choose to give on the spot, Band Members can accept cash, check, and gently used instruments. Or use the QR code on the flyer they will provide to make a donation later.

All students travel with at least one other Band Member and an adult chaperone in a nearby car.  

If you don’t meet one of our talented students on September 14, please consider donating online. You are welcome to contribute to the Band Member breakfast (scroll a bit further).
