  BAND BBQ TURN-IN: We had a great turn-in this evening, but if you were unable to come by or if you still have some more you want to sell,  you can keep selling and turn in your items at the band room with Mrs. Dothard. We will also be taking walk-ups the day of the event.

  If anyone in the community needs to purchase tickets and has not been approached by a band representative, please contact us at: chstrojanbands@gmail.com or purchase your tickets online at: https://chstrojanband.revtrak.net.
