This year, Pride of the Mountains will become one of the only bands in Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade history to perform twice in 5 years. The journey to this incredible day really begins now as students have already begun preparing for the Parade. Many though, are worried about the cost of the trip. Gifts of any size can help make this trip possible for our students.
Each of the five hundred students in Pride of the Mountains will need uniforms, equipment, meals, transportation, and lodging during their stay. We need your help to raise $150,000 to ensure all of our talented and hard-working band members get to participate in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The more money that we raise, the less money these students will have to pay out of pocket.
We aren’t leaving any one behind and we can’t do this without you. Be with us every step of the way as Pride of the Mountains makes their way to Macy’s in 2019.
Every contribution gets a student one step closer to the experience of a lifetime
