More than 100 bands from across the country applied to be a part of the 2020 Rose Parade and just 16 were chosen.
Pearland High School marching band made the list!
The students are so excited and busy preparing for their big performance. But, practicing isn’t the only thing they need to worry about……$2,000 stands between each Pearland High School band student and marching in the 2020 Rose Parade.
Band student Francisco Santacruz realizes getting there won’t be easy and he is getting a jumpstart on fundraising with a little help from his friends.
“We as the band are doing all sorts of fundraisers to raise funds to help those in need as well as cover all the other expenses. We have the Rose Parade signs ($20), Our Take Out Tuesdays..different restaurants every Tuesday will donate a percentage of sales to the band, and lots more,” said band representative CarrieDillie Den Uijl.
For more information on fundraising efforts or to make a donation today, please visit the Pearland High School Band website or email Carrie at lildillie@sbcglobal.net.
