THE PRIDE OF HAWK NATION
|
It's officially time to launch our 4th annual Hawk Band March-A-Thon!
March-A-Thon is an annual event that allows supporters of the Hays High School Band program and its student members the opportunity to sponsor a student or the entire program. This sponsorship is to support the over 200 hours of hard work that each student will put into the 2023 marching season. Last year, your Hawk Band and Guard community collectively raised $47,000!! During the March-A-Thon fundraising window, sponsors have the opportunity to make a "per minute" sponsorship or make a flat donation sponsorship to show their support and appreciation for the hard work of each student and the Hays Band & Guard community. This year, every student has been tasked with a fundraising goal of $240 to honor the 240 minutes of rehearsal they will put in during our March-A-Thon clinic. It is our hope that as a member of our Hays Band community you will consider making a donation to support the Pride of Hawk Nation! |
