We ask that each band family purchases at least 5 NHS Music Boosters Raffle Tickets and consider becoming a sponsor. Please share the raffle and sponsorship information with friends and family to help support our Music Department! Volunteer to help with our Band Events and Raffle Ticket sales at Band, Choir, Orchestra, and Tri-M concerts.
