Olympic Band Loses
Funding Source, Needs Help
(November 10,
2006) Olympic High School's Annual Trojan Classic band competition
is a major source of funds for band activities. Unfortunately, this
year's event, scheduled for October 28, was cancelled because of
heavy rains that made the football field too soggy to handle a
day-long usage by the 17 bands scheduled to compete.
Ticket sales and
concessions could have raised $15,000 or more to support band travel and
competitions. Now, the band and its boosters must rely on alternate
sources of funding.
The band is now
conducting their annual Fruit Sale, which ends November 17. For more
information, contact any band member, visit the
Olympic Band Home Page, or call
(704) 588-3699.
