Help AHS buy band uniforms
The Arlington High School’s jazz bands holds two performances of its annual Swing Into Spring dessert and dance fundraiser, 7 p.m. May 11 and May 12. Tickets are $15 and available at arlingtonsd16.revtrak.net.
This year’s event also features a silent auction to raise money for marching band uniforms. The current uniforms are nearly three decades old, and there aren’t enough to go around. Boosters hope to raise at least $106,000, the cost to replace just what they have. Students have raised $18,000 so far.
