GATESVILLE BAND BOOSTERS
The Gatesville Band Boosters are responsible for giving support, both moral and financial to the band program of Gatesville ISD. In short, we do what it takes to help make Gatesville’s band program successful. Here are just a few ways we help our program:
CONCESSION STAND
We run the Thursday and Friday night concession stands at football and soccer games at Gatesville High School. This helps us raise most of our funds during the year. We always need volunteer help to make this possible!
TRIPS
Every four years, we help sponsor a major trip with our high school band students. These trips are expensive, but help reward our students for a tremendous amount of hard work and dedication during their four years.
GENERAL STUDENT SUPPORT
We assist the band staff in supporting students at events and competitions. We help provide snacks, move equipment, and cheer on our students as they perform. We also assist with the Band Banquet in the spring, and other events throughout the year as needed.
PRivate LESSONS
We pay for 50% of private lesson costs for interested band students. Private lessons are critical to a band program’s success. One-on-one instruction is a proven success-driver for programs across the state, and all over the world.
SCHOLARSHIPS
We provide college scholarships for outstanding senior students. We want to reward success and help our students who want to carry their passion for music forward into college achieve their dream – with as little debt as possible!
FUNDRAISERS AND PROJECTS
We also help with other fundraisers and projects during the school year, from provide funds for equipment, building marching band sets, or providing funding for a website
