The
Hillsboro Hawks Band Booster Club is an organization of parents,
alumni and friends who support music education at Hillsboro R-3
School. We work with the Hillsboro R-3 Administration and
Band Directors for the improvement of the band programs.
Our school's instrumental program includes five levels of concert
bands (Symphonic Band, Concert Band, 8th Grade, 7th Grade, and
Beginner Bands), and two levels of jazz bands (Senior High and
Junior High). Hillsboro R-3 Schools boasts an outstanding
team of instructors to lead these bands.
The Hillsboro Hawks Band Booster Club is a registered Non-Profit
Charitable Organization. The Hillsboro Hawks Band Booster Club
sponsors events and activities not only to raise funds for the
Hillsboro School Band Programs but also to assist with the growth
opportunities of the students and to further the common good and
general welfare of the people of the community.
We look forward to another exceptional
year with the Hillsboro band program this year. We urge
you to become a Hillsboro
Hawks Band Booster and to assist this excellent program.
Our band booster organization is ready and willing to help you
at any time. If you have any questions about any band-related
activity for the upcoming year, please feel free to contact one
of our officers (listed below) at any time:
We
provide support to the marching band unit, including moving equipment
on and off the field; assisting with travel, uniforms, and repairs;
fundraising; offering enthusiastic support; and otherwise doing
what we can to enhance the students' band experience.
Band activities include the following: concerts, Band Banquet,
Jazz Dinner, Music in the Parks, competitions, and parades.
The band boosters offer musical support and spirit to the Hillsboro
High School football games and for a variety of school events,
including graduation. The band provides a support group
and haven for those who love music.
Lots
of ways: It takes a group of dedicated students' parents
to keep the Hillsboro Band program great! The Hillsboro
Hawks Band Booster Club is dedicated to the support and advancement
of the Hillsboro Band program. With competitions and performances
comes the obligation for clean and altered uniforms, music, more
instruments, and general repair. These items frequently are not
funded by the Hillsboro School District. As a band
booster or parent of a Hillsboro band student, you have the unique
opportunity to help promote a band program with a proud
legacy in our area. Your Band Boosters Club needs every
parent to become involved! Whether it's fundraising, chaperoning,
event organization, volunteering, or just showing up for monthly
meetings, all that we ask is that you share with us your ideas
and a little of your time and energy. Everyone has something to
contribute and we need each and every one of you!
We
look forward to another exceptional year with the Hillsboro Hawks
