Welcome Warrior Marching Band Parents and Students
As our season gets off to a wonderful start, we want to welcome each of you to the Warrior Marching Band Boosters. We are excited to start another year of great music and amazing performances. As you know, the purpose of the Boosters is to promote the development and continuation of superior band programs in the Oconee County School System and to help provide excellent musical opportunities for students in the school system and for members of the community.
The Boosters is made up of parent volunteers dedicated to supporting the students and excellent music programs. The boosters provide operational logistics for all aspects of the program, fundraising, food preparation and necessary support for things to run smoothly.
One of the most important parts of our efforts is FUNDRAISING! Our fundraising efforts provide the program the necessary funds for new instruments and repairs, uniform purchases and upkeep, instructional staff and music, and support equipment that keeps the program running smoothly.
Your participation is vital to our ability to reach our musical and financial goals. There are many opportunities to help our music programs. Volunteering and actively participating in your child’s music education is imperative. To have a successful program, we need your participation in our major fundraisers: concessions, sponsorships and the 50/50 rally.
The general Band Boosters meetings are the second Mondays of each month, and are on the calendar on the home page. These meetings are for all to attend, and help guide the future success of the program. The meetings offer the latest news about the band and its activities, and provide an opportunity to socialize with other band parents and to ask questions of the Directors.
Becoming an active member in our efforts helps promote the success of your children within the music program at our school, and helps everyone achieve a higher level of success. We look forward to your participation and support. Here’s to a great year!
Go Warriors!

Thank You For a Great Marching Band Season
From the Booster President: I want to personally thank all of the volunteers who worked hard in the concession stand, helped on the sidelines and chaperoned on the buses. We have had a successful and fun season. We still have the parade to go and I look forward to watching the best band in Oconee county march down Main Street.
