In partnership with Midland Independent School District, the Legacy High School Band is currently raising funds to invest in a brand-new custom-designed semi-trailer.

The current semi-trailer is 27 years old and was repurposed after being used by Frito Lay for 20 years. The life expectancy of a semi-trailer is 20 years, meaning that the truck had reached the end of life when it was obtained by the LHS band. The Mighty Rebel Band is heavily dependent on the semi-trailer throughout the school year to transport high-dollar instruments and equipment to various performances, both inside and outside the city of Midland.

Each year, the Band Booster is challenged with repairing the semi-trailer to keep it operational. The new semi-trailer will be custom designed to protect and transport the band’s instruments, equipment, performance props, and uniforms. Students are responsible for loading and unloading the trailer. A new semi-trailer will add efficiencies to effectively make the best use of the student’s time and will add safety features through the use of a motorized lift.

“Music programs across the nation are notoriously underfunded. Statistics show that students who are in band experience higher test scores, higher graduation rates, better attendance rates, and lower discipline referrals” says the Head of Bands, Mr. Steven Dojahn.

The brand-new, customized semi-trailer will be designed to fit the size and needs of the Mighty Rebel Band. The Midland Independent School District has contributed 50% of the total cost leaving $100,000 left to raise. The band is the largest student organization on campus with over 150 members. The Mighty Rebel Band is excited about this opportunity. We need your help today!
