Silent Auction
Our third fundraiser each year is the Silent Auction.
This fundraiser helps to fill in needed income for the year, sometimes falling short
due to other fundraisers not doing as well, needy families who require help with their
band fees, and just generally making sure that all the expenditures for the year are
covered (including the ever rising cost of transportation, which is rarely covered
by the school district).
The Silent Auction involves the students putting together items that will be sold
by silent bids. The winning bid on each item goes directly to costs for the music
program, and also gives the community a place where they can get good deals on a wide
variety of items, including gift baskets with unique themes created entirely by the
music-program student body!
Encourage your students to help with this Springtime fundraiser!
