Last week was a short but busy week with a home game and car wash fundraiser! The Car Wash was very successful yesterday. Thank you to everyone who came out to work the event. It looked like a lot of our students took advantage of the opportunity to raise money towards their trip to Texas!
 
Here are last week’s Marchers and Section of the week. Honorable Mentions: Enrique Arizmendi (woodwinds), AJ Curry (brass), Dylan Hubbell (percussion), and Aliyah Luangkhot, Samantha Mugavero, and Jayde Naas (auxiliary). Marchers of the Week: Carmen Ledo (woodwinds), Kleber Flores-Hernandez (brass), Yariel Diaz (percussion), Tatiana Hernandez (auxiliary), and Shelby Newransky, Jack Waligora, and Jeremy Walsh (officer). The Section of the Week was the Trumpet Section led by Section Leaders Christopher Alvarez, Mason Duryea, and Ben Llorca! Congratulations!

Instrument Repair & Equipment: Our trusted local vendors are Cadence Music and Christman Music. Both vendors can drop off orders and pick-up instruments for repair at PRHS—but parents have to call to make arrangements ahead of time. Instruments will not be picked up unless orders for repair are placed ahead of time. Contact information for Cadence Music and Christman Music can be found on the band website under the “Students” tab.
 
Marching Pride Sponsors: We are reaching out to local businesses and contributors to the arts to help fund our program. Special funding projects that could use sponsors include the cost to transport instruments to marching competitions and the cost to transport instruments to Texas. Every gift helps to provide our students with life-changing experiences. If you or a business you know of is interested in donating to the Marching Pride, please contact our Band Booster President Mr. Anthony Rowtie at [email protected] or Mrs. Robinson at [email protected].
