Parent/Booster Roundtable
Join us on Friday, November 14 from 2PM – 3:30PM for an opportunity to connect with parent/boosters from other band programs, share ideas, and ask questions!
The Parent/Booster Roundtable is designed to bring together parents and boosters from programs all around the country to share ideas, ask questions, and build connections with one another. Whether your program is seeking new strategies in one area, or your program has found success in another area and you are willing to share ideas and insight based on your experience, this gathering offers a unique opportunity to learn from the successes of other programs and spark fresh ideas to take back home.
Registration for this event is required. Registration will close on Monday, November 10. Additional event details will be shared the week of the event with those who have registered.
