Send us your Testimonial!

Personal stories are our best "advertising." Whether you made a career in music because of your experience in band, or whether the values you learned through the program continue to impact your life today, we want to hear from you.  Your voice is the strongest when music programs are threatened in our schools. 

SPECIAL THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HAS SUPPORTED OUR FUNDRAISERS! ​​​

At our January 2020 Fish Fry Fundraiser along with the Sun Prairie Band Boosters, over $629 was raised to support BPBF!

We raised over $700 at our 2018 Spaghetti Fundraiser thanks to the support of our dedicated volunteers, The Round Table, and all of YOU who came out to enjoy wonderful meals and yummy desserts!
​
The money raised helps us continue our support of the Sun Prairie Band Program - mentoring (private lessons), scholarships (college, jazz summer camps & SOSP) and more!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT!
