Play-a-thon 2022

Let's get the fundraising out of the way now so we can focus on the music!  Please share our GoFundMe link far and wide

Money raised at the Play-a-thon supports all aspects of our program and covers a variety of costs such as purchasing sheet music, subsidies for performance attire, travel to festivals and parades, solo and ensemble registrations, specialist teacher support, among others.

Rather than charge a mandatory fee for band, Mr. Riler and the Friends of Cleveland Bands feel strongly that access should be available to all. This is why we ask friends and family to support the program with tax-deductible donations that are meaningful and appropriate to them. We do not want to limit any student's ability to participate!

Who's Coming on the Spring Trip?

Have you seen the sample itinerary?  This trip is open to all students, so it's a great opportunity for younger players to level up while building community across the program. If you're interested in joining, please see the following form.  No payment is due at this time.
Spring Trip Commitment Form
Wind Symphony & Jazz Ensemble Concert Attire

A document was sent home with the Wind Symphony and Jazz Ensemble students. Here is a link to the document.
 
If your student musician already has concert attire, it is IMPERATIVE that they try on their current attire to be sure everything still fits.  Separate tux pieces can be purchased directly from Mr. Formal, if parts of a tux do not fit or must be replaced.

Regardless of choice, all payments (except for individual tux parts) will go to Cleveland HS.  We will order the attire through our bookkeeper.  You can pay by check (Payable to Cleveland HS), or use SCHOOL PAY.  Please submit payment by October 12.
Play-a-thon Volunteers Needed

Support our musicians during our largest fundraiser of the year! Whether you have time to chaperone or would prefer to simply drop off supplies, we need your help to make this year's Play-A-Thon a success. Please sign up here!
Volunteer Interest Survey

We'd like to streamline our volunteer requests by maintaining a roster of folks that are interested in various types of volunteering.  (Why hit you up for baked goods if you're more interested in chaperoning?)  Please fill out our Volunteer Interest Survey.
