Dear family and friends,

      We are very proud of our Marching Mustangs!  On November 3rd our children had the opportunity to perform at Lucas Oil

Stadium in Indianapolis for State Finals. This is the band’s 8th consecutive year of making the trip to State, and the band

placed 4th in our class the past two years.

      It takes dedication to achieve this success; not only from the kids but also from the hardworking parents who support

them.  We have a wonderful group of parents who fundraise all year long to cover the expenses necessary to create an

award-winning show.  The Band Backers raise money to fund the props, entry fees, music, choreography and other fees

related to the yearly show.

       We are having this donation drive because there are costs over and above our yearly expenses that we are unable to

cover.  The band desperately needs a new semi-trailer to carry instruments and other equipment to and from competitions. The current trailer is over 25 years old and has many issues, including dry rot and a leaky roof. The repairs needed to keep

the trailer functional are costly, and we would like to purchase a new one.  A new trailer and related outfitting will cost

between $20,000 and $25,000 and will help the band greatly.   Additionally, we would like to purchase 4 new tubas at over $4,000 each. Our current tubas are well used, dented, and showing their age; please see attached pictures. New tubas

would help the band improve its overall sound and aid in continuing our tradition of excellence.

       Here is what we need from you:  

To donate, please make checks payable to Munster Band Backers and send to Munster Band Backers,

8808 Columbia Avenue, Munster, Indiana, 46321. If you prefer to donate online through PayPal and help ourcurrent, and

future talented students, please click on the link below. Also, please check with your employer to see if they have a

“donation matching” program.  This is a wonderful way to raise extra funds.

For donations over $500 please contact us at [email protected] for sponsorship opportunities.     

Thank you so much for supporting the band!  We appreciate your donations greatly.

Sincerely,

Stacie Trivunovic
