Next Boosters Meeting: Monday, May 6, 2024, 7:00 pm
April 14, 2024
As ever, I am grateful for those who have already stepped up to offer leadership and service to the 2024-2025 Brighton Band Boosters. One of the current Co-Treasurers will be offering transitional support and guidance for the next Treasurers. We have had one person declare interest, but need a partner to share these responsibilities, which include:
-
managing student accounts
-
writing checks for various Booster-related items
-
making cash/check deposits at the bank
-
assisting Concessions Leads with counting/depositing monies from sales
-
providing monthly financial reports for the Booster meetings
If you are interested in learning more, reach out to our current Co-Treasurers or if you want to nominate yourself or someone else, let me know and I will forward your message to the members of the Nominating Committee!

Welcome!
The Brighton Band Boosters is a non-profit organization of parents and care-givers dedicated to working in partnership with our Band Directors to create a one-of-a-kind experience for our band students. We support all aspects of the band including the marching band, drumline, and color guard, as well as the multiple concert bands at all three schools.
The Boosters are run by a board of volunteers elected by our members each year. We provide all band parents and guardians the opportunity to actively support our amazing band programs by helping with things such as chaperoning events and student socials, helping to move band equipment and distributing uniforms, assisting with concert publicity, fundraising, and more. Our goal is to keep things running smoothly so the band directors can focus on the students and the music. Our fundraising efforts, most notably the sale of concessions during BAS sporting events, provide valuable financial support to the bands.
The Boosters meet once a month. Meetings are open to parents and care-givers from BHS, Scranton and Maltby and include information concerning the future of the band programs, upcoming events, and areas of concern or need. Throughout the year you will receive email newsletters from the Boosters with event updates and volunteer opportunities. To learn more about how you can contribute to the on-going success of our band programs please contact the Booster President JuliAnne Diesch or attend one of our upcoming meetings.
Go Dogs!
