Taking Over The Big Apple – Keller High School Marching Band

If you didn’t attend Keller High School, then you know someone who did. Students at Keller High School are recognized for their notable accomplishments from academics to athletics and fine arts, and Keller High School Band is known for contributing some of those awards throughout the past few years.

These high school students have the opportunity to represent Keller (and the only band from Texas!) in New York City this Thanksgiving to perform in the 2018 Macy’s Day Parade! To help send Keller HS Band to New York, they are calling upon the community for support.

Keller HS students and parents are raising money with a Holiday fundraiser for the various expenses for their trip and they would love your help (Check out the list of needs here!)

Purchase a holiday wreath or Christmas tree through a KellerBand.BrungotFarms.com before October 7th and help the students reach their goal to make it to New York!

Donate to Keller High School Band on their website or click here to see how close they are to their goal! We hope to see Keller High walking on the streets of New York this fall!
