Individual Contributions
Sponsor a Marcher
$250
The cost of Marching Band can add up. It's standard for marching programs to ask each student pay a fee to help cover the basic costs of travel, instrument repair, and supplies. In addition, there are items we ask each student obtain themselves. We will never turn a student away due to financial difficulties. By choosing to sponsor a marcher, you will be helping us offer financial aid to one of our students who needs it most. Interested sponsors can sign up via the Google Form, here.
What your contribution covers:
- Band fee
- Summer Uniform shorts
- Marching shoes
You receive:
- Donation Receipt
- A Sound of Central decal
- A t-shirt for the Sound of Central marching show

Business Sponsorships
Donations from local businesses are another substantial source of our band's funding! In return, businesses receive various levels of advertisement by the band—on our website, our band trailer, on the outside of our concession stand, and at our performances. This money goes towards all the things basic band fees can't cover, including but not limited to Colorguard uniforms, flags, prop expenses, and compensating auxiliary instructors and staff.
Advertisements will be displayed for one year following donation, unless renewed.
If you own a business and are interested in sponsoring our program, please fill out the Google Form, here.
