$ Fundraising $
Contact pantherbandwagon@gmail.com for details
The Mead Bandwagon (booster club of the MHS Band and Guard) and Mead HS ASB groups are proud to offer many fundraiser opportunities to assist our students and their families in meeting the financial needs of our program. With that said, not every student participates in all of the opportunities and often does not participate in any of them, which is okay, and a personal choice to make.
​
Our fundraisers are organized and run by either our Mead Bandwagon OR our Mead High School Associated Student Body, or ASB. Each of those groups will offer fundraisers that earn money for the student or the general fund. Please check closely for which fundraisers are for student earnings or for general account (good of the group).
​
Money earned from either of our fundraiser groups is officially property of those groups which is then credited/scholarshipped to student fees. Students are not directly in receipt of money earned.
​
Lastly, our fundraising offerings do not change much and generally stay constant over a student's time in the program. Please take advantage of the opportunities every chance you get to save for those band expenses.
