September 7: SLHS Band Comes Door-to-Door for Tag Day

Knock, knock.  Who’s there?  South Lakes Band Kids . . .

Tomorrow, September 7 South Lakes Band Kids will be knocking on your door to ask for your donations.  Our goal:  Raise $25,000 in one day.  Tag Day is the band’s largest fundraiser and supplements funding provided by Fairfax County Public Schools.  Check out the band tonight during halftime of the home field football game opener against Westfields.

Your generous, tax-deductible contributions will help support students who have financial need as well as help the school purchase and replace much-needed instruments.  Many instruments date back to the late 1970s when South Lakes opened – and are now beyond repair.  Your contributions toward instrument purchases will last for many years to come. You may also donate ONLINE at www.southlakesband.org
