Band Banquet -Year End Commemorative Program
Band Student or Business Ads Now Available for Purchase
**Seniors, please also send in a few (up to 4) of your favorite pics from the year to be included in the program**
All due May 9th to banquet@lbba.org.
While we can't get together for our annual year-end Band Banquet, we can mark the occasion in print, as usual!
A 2020 COMMEMORATIVE Band Program will be published as a special keepsake for our very special students. This is the same format as the Band Banquet Program many of you are used to.
Again this year, parents, grandparents and local businesses have the opportunity to purchase advertisements in the program. Proceeds will help fund the program’s production, printing and mailing costs.
The Ads section is a popular feature: students love seeing their parents' personal messages and anticipate which photos will be featured. You can wish them good luck, pass on words of wisdom, proclaim how proud you are of them, or embarrass them with baby pictures. Costs for ads in the 8 x 11” program are as follows:
• ¼ page ad, with one photo = $25
• ½ page ad, with up to two photos = $50
• Full page ad, up to 10 photos = $100
The purchase price for families that buy an ad includes a complimentary program mailed to your home. Families who choose not to purchase an ad, but would like a program, may order one for $10. This covers the cost of the program and shipping.
Make checks payable to LBBA and on the memo line write “band program ad” and your student’s name. Mail payment to LBBA, PO Box 670253, Marietta, GA 30066. Or pay online, noting your mailing address in the memo box.
It’s really easy to create your own ad. Just send your photos and text to banquet@lbba.org and we will do the rest. Remember to include your mailing address and size of ad you want.
