Boosters
Working Together To Support Our Eaton Rapids Greyhound Bands
There are many ways to get involved with the Eaton Rapids Band Boosters and there is always a need for more volunteers. General meetings are open to all and are generally held the second Thursday of each month at 6:00 pm in the High School Band Room.
Beyond the general meetings, there are committees including Budget, Communications, Fundraising, Social, Travel and Uniform. Each committee serves a great variety of functions. There are six elected officers and volunteer teams of special project coordinators. If you have a special talent or skill to offer, the odds are very good the Band Boosters can use your help!
Sometimes extra hands are needed at a band concert, band performance trip, fundraising event or leading a special fundraising activity. We now are posting opportunities to help on VolunteerSpot. Visit our site and sign up today!

Band Boosters help raise money for two different kinds of fundraising: General fund and Family Band Accounts. The General fund is used for 5th grade through the high school band universal costs. Family Band Account fundraising allows students to earn money for their personal band account. In this way, students can begin to accrue funds in 5th grade that will be available to them when they incur band expenses. Student accounts can be used to cover such things as uniform costs, travel expenses and high school marching band fees.
