Play-a-thon Site is Live!

At 4:00 pm on October 15, 2021, one hundred and forty-plus Cleveland High School students will be participating in the seventh annual CHS Bands Play-a-thon.
 
The performances will run from 4:00pm until 9:30pm. Here is the schedule with a short explanation of the evening.  Students are aware of which band they have been assigned to, and are expected to be at school starting at 4:00pm. Many students will just stay after school is over. They will be fed pizza for our dinner break (Thank you Friends of Cleveland Bands).
 
This event is our fall concert & our annual fundraiser. We have raised as much as $34,000 with this single event. We have a goal of $20,000 this year. Take the time to read through the explanation of how funds are used on the GoFundMe page.  
 
Please direct friends and family to the CHS Play-a-thon GoFundMe page, where they will be inspired by the amazing video from Funnelbox that outlines what goes on in the band room and why it is so important. Just make sure to remind them to include the name of the student on behalf of whom they are donating.
 
It has been a great start to the year!! We are thrilled to be able to play together again, and look forward to presenting some music via a live-stream in 11 days. The live stream link will be shared as we approach our performance date. It will also be included on the GoFundMe page.

Thank you for your support!
