President's Message
Seven Lakes High School Band Boosters,
Inc. is a non-profit organization providing
support for the Spartan Band through volunteer service and financial
assistance. To
achieve this goal, it takes many dedicated volunteers all working
together as a team
throughout the year. The help of each band member’s family is needed to
provide the
necessary support for a successful band program. Financial assistance is
needed to cover
items not typically included in the Katy ISD budget. Each year (usually
in May), the
Booster Membership approves a budget which helps support such important
items as:
-
Clinicians who
train the students in the finer details of using their instrument
and assist in improving the band's marching and concert skills
-
Entry fees to
contests
-
Transportation to
contests
-
Purchase of
special music
-
Maintenance of
equipment
-
Purchase of new
equipment
-
Senior scholarship
program
-
An End-of-the-Year
Celebration Banquet
- Summer band camp scholarship
program
