Fundraising is a very important part of our band booster organization. Throughout the year, the band boosters provide multiple fundraising opportunities for both students and parents to participate in. Most of the fundraisers are short term, lasting anywhere from 1 day up to 2 weeks in length. We do have a few that are ongoing all year long.

Kroger and Albertson’s Grocery Card
Everyone shops for groceries, so why not earn the band money while you shop! Kroger and Albertson’s have a unique program in which they will donate back to the band 1% of all sales made by band supporters throughout the year. All you have to do is scan your Kroger Reward Card/Albertson’s Community Card at the check out counters. This is an easy way for your friends and family to help support the band as well. There is no cost to you to participate in either of these programs. Please contact Tim or Kelly Mallams to obtain sign up materials for both programs.
Patriot Band Night at Local Restaurants
During football season, after each Friday night game that is played locally, the band students and parents are invited to get together at CiCi’s Pizza. They are located in the Bass Pro shopping center in Garland. CiCi’s donates a portion of the sales generated that night back to the Band Boosters.
