One of Our biggest Fundraiser of the Year!!
Saturday, October 19 at 9:30 am – 12:30 pm
What is TAG DAY?
All Band/Choir members raise money by collecting contributions door-to-door in neighborhoods in the Southwest Local School District to help promote the music programs. For safety, students go in teams door-to-door asking for tax-deductible donations and turn in money collected. Instruments and other charitable gifts are also welcomed.
Who Should Participate?
All Wildcat Marching Band, Concert Band, Jazz Band, Color Guard, A Cappella, Treble Choir and Wildcat Choir members. This is an event strongly encouraged for all Band and Choral members to participate! Volunteers are also needed!
What Should Students Wear?
Each student should dress in a Marching Band uniform, Concert Band tuxedo, Color Guard uniform, A Cappella shirt, or Choral uniform.
Why Do We Need a Tag Day?
Thousands of dollars are needed each year to run a complete band/choir program. Donations from family, friends, and neighbors are needed to purchase music and choreography, purchase uniforms, microphones and props, buy instruments and equipment, pay for student workshops and pay for competition fees. In this way, Tag Day supports the entire music program.
How Can Families Support Tag Day?
Ensure your student participates! Volunteer to drive students to collection areas or tabulate donations. We can’t do it without your help!
Can you start collecting now?
Yes, you can! Just have the contributor complete the donation form and include it in your donation envelope or request donations using the Donate Button.
