As we are nearing the end of the school year, we are looking forward to next year with your student continuing on in the Bronco Bands. We see exciting opportunities ahead and with that come more responsibilities; not just for your student, but for the program as a whole. There’s too much work for the Directors to handle, so the Bronco Band Boosters supply a stream of volunteers. We always welcome and appreciate all of our volunteers that help in numerous ways, from moving instruments and stands from the band room to the football field on Friday nights, to helping with Festival and Solo & Ensembles. However, this year we are looking to fill 3 booster board member roles, the VP, Accounts, and Secretary positions before the 2023/24 school year.  If you are interested in learning more about these positions, please reach out to Marc Simkins, our booster’s president (president@coopersvillebands.org), or join us at our next meeting on April 11 @ 6:00pm in the High School band room to learn more. Even if you are not interested in joining the boosters but would like to attend our meetings, please join us the 2nd Tuesday of each month @6:00pm in the HS band room. We are always looking for fresh faces and ideas at our meetings!
