📣 Band Patrons Rock!

This year, all donations of $200 or more will automatically qualify you to be a Music Patron of the OEHS Band Program! By becoming a Music Patron, you will receive reserved seating for all of our concerts throughout the 2026–2027 school year, along with having your name featured in our printed concert programs. We cannot thank you enough for your generous support!

If every student raises $400, we can make this the only band donation drive of the year!

A great musical performance is more than just notes; it is the culmination of countless hours of practice, teamwork, and passion. In every ensemble at Oswego East—from the Beasts of the East Marching Band, to our swinging Jazz Bands, to our nationally recognised Concert Bands—our students are building skills and memories that will last a lifetime. This autumn, you can play an essential part in their story.

Your support lays the foundation for our entire music program, enriching the experience of every single student musician. Your contributions directly fund:

The unforgettable trip to a concert festival where they perform for expert judges and grow as musicians.
The clinic with a professional who inspires an entire section to reach a new level.
The pride of walking onto a concert stage in polished performance attire, ready to share their hard work with the community.
The opportunity for every interested student to join, create, and belong, thanks to our financial aid program.
Quality instruments for our students to use and musically thrive.

Music education teaches discipline, creativity, and collaboration—skills essential for any future path. By supporting the full OEHS Band Program, you are investing in a well-rounded arts education for the next generation.

Help us provide the best possible experience for every musician. Any contribution, large or small, makes a significant difference. Please donate today to support the future of music at Oswego East.
