CHAIR FUNDRAISER

Dear friends and supporters of the McGavock Band & Orchestra:

The McGavock Band & Orchestra is in the process of purchasing Musician Chairs for use in the instrumental rehearsal room. These chairs are specially designed to emphasize posture and correct air support.

We hope you will financially support us in this endeavor with a tax-deductible donation of $100, which will purchase one chair and corresponding transportation cart. Full donations of $100 will be recognized with a personalized engraved plate on the back of the chair. Partial donations are also welcomed, but will not qualify you for a personalization.

The order form can be found here.

Thank you for helping keep public music alive in America’s Music City!
