Upcoming Events
Band Backers meeting
You are cordially invited to attend the Band Backer Meeting on Wednesday January 29 at 7pm in the band room. We hope to see you there!
ISSMA Solo and Ensemble contest at Wilbur Wright Saturday February 8th.
We will soon be posting signup times for this event. This is an event that requires MANY volunteers to be a success. Remember that each family
is required to have a volunteer at one of our two ISSMA events to get your volunteer points for the year. Please see the volunteer point system
on the parent page of this website (munsterband.org) for more information.
Performance times for all of the events will be posted on tjhis site as soon as ISSMA publishes them.

for our parents. Helps confirm here are others out there who get it! We are not alone in our quest for achieving
great things on a budget!
