Why do we need Band Boosters?

The money earmarked for band programs in Fairfax County only covers the salary of the Band Director and very little beyond that. To be able to compete, travel, buy uniforms, hire professional coaches, buy new instruments, help students pay for travel and activities they might not otherwise afford and parties and social activities, money must be raised. That is where the Band Boosters comes in!
