F.A.Q.s:
What is the Grandview Band Boosters?
The Grandview Band Boosters is an organization composed of parents, staff, alumni, businesses, and friends
that support all the bands (marching band, orchestra, symphonic, freshman, jazz, and middle schools) by
raising money to purchase equipment, uniforms and items beyond what the school music budget provides,
transportation to competitions and events, and the planning, organization and preparation of food for these
events. Band Boosters takes great pride in providing money to fund music scholarships for graduating
Grandview High School Band musicians.

How is money raised?
Money is raised through memberships, corporate sponsorships, spirit wear sales, and fundraisers throughout
the year. You are invited to volunteer your time and skills to support these activities.

Why should I join?
By becoming a Band Booster member, you have the wonderful opportunity to help our young musicians
have a more enjoyable and rewarding school band experience. You will make new friends and gain a sense
of satisfaction in knowing that you have enriched the Grandview Band community.

What do Band Booster volunteers do?
Grandview Band Boosters volunteers have a wide variety of opportunities available to them. As a group, we
help move pit instruments and director platforms on and off the field for the home football games.
Volunteers are always needed to provide cookies or brownies for competitions as well as attend competitions
when their schedule allow. Volunteers are called upon to provide home baked items to sell as fundraising
efforts after each concert at the high school and both middle schools. The list is endless but the fun knows
no bounds!
