"BANDS OF HOPE" project
Members of the Broadway Band family were the proud sponsors of the “Bands of Hope” project from 2005-2020. Each year we formed an MS Walk team to "Band Together against MS". Our efforts were in support of retired BHS Band Director Mrs. Paula Fair, and for all victims of the neurological disorder Multiple Sclerosis. The BHS and JFH Bands participated with team “Bands of HOPE” in the Harrisonburg MS Walk for 15 consecutive years. We established our team in 2005, when Mrs. Fair announced her retirement to focus on her own battle with MS.
When we are actively participating in this project again, you will be able to register online at the website below; after you sign up, you will deal directly with the National MS Society, and you will turn in donations on the day of the walk; all checks should be made out to the National MS Society. All proceeds raised will go directly to the National MS Society, to be used towards research and for helping those with the disease. Students under age 18 should get parent permission to sign up. Parents are responsible for transportation to and from the event, and for the supervision of their child during this event.
Please consider joining us in the fight for a cure! Our goal is to raise at least $1000. If you cannot join us on the Walk, please help us by raising funds. Questions? Contact Cathy Brown, Captain of Team “Bands of Hope”, by email at [email protected]
