No, we aren't the second coming of a 1970s rock group.
(The second B isn't backwards, for one thing.)
We're the Anderson Band
Booster Association.
Besides sponsoring this web site, we support all band
students and sanctioned activities. Our group actively supports the Anderson
Band program (marching, guard, jazz, concert season…etc), the
band students, the directors and all sanctioned band activities.
You don’t
need to have a student in the band to belong to ABBA.
We
sponsor the summer picnic and swim party. We help plan fun activities
during summer band. During the school year, we provide refreshments
at concerts. We chaperone buses to and from competitions and football
games and transport instruments. We print the band student directory.
We sit together at football games and contests to cheer for the
band. We sponsor a web site and a Yahoo news group. We raise money
for
new instruments, music, contest fees, tuners, yard signs, letter
jackets, color guard flags and the marching show. We fit and mend
uniforms and arrange for tailoring. We assist students with contest
and game day preparation and meals. In addition, we help fund supplemental
summer band instruction, as well as drum line/front line and color
guard instructors. The Anderson Band Booster Association provides
all of these services to benefit all band and color guard students.
WE NEED YOU! More importantly, your student needs you (even if
they say it would be embarrassing to have you around). Please join
the
boosters and if you can, volunteer
for a committee…we’d
love to have you!
Our monthly meetings are at the
Band Hall, and all interested parents are invited to attend.
Dates and times are announced on the website
calendar and are sent out on
updates from the Yahoo news group. To get an invitation to the news
group…please email Terri Panico (ABBA President for 2008-09)
