Sterling High School Band Uniforms & Marching Info
Launch the media gallery 1 playerDear Band Parent,
The Sterling High School Band is in need of new marching band uniforms. Our present uniforms are 27 years old and are showing lots of wear and tear. We have been working with Fruhauf Uniforms, Inc to design a new uniform for our band. They are the company that produced our present uniforms and are the industry leaders in band uniform design around the world. We would like to order the new uniforms soon; however, we are still in need of additional funding. We have 43 students enrolled in Band next year and our numbers are growing each year. To purchase 50 uniforms at $363.31 each, our total is $18,165. Music boosters have been fundraising and have raised approximately half the total needed. We are asking for your help to accomplish this goal.
There are two ways you can help:
1. Send your tax deductible donations to:
Sterling Public School
Attn: Music Boosters
PO Box 39
Sterling, NE 68443
2. Sign up to help work the Bingo game we are sponsoring at the Sterling Picnic.
We will be using the Legion building downtown to host bingo beginning at 6:00 p.m. The games will run until 10:00 or later, depending on how many people we have playing. Please contact Mrs. LeMunyan at 866-4761 to sign up.

These uniforms will be worn for many years to come, so even if your child is only in 5th grade, this purchase will affect them. We appreciate your help and your continued support of the music program!!
The new uniforms are made of a durable light-weight material that will be more comfortable as well as cooler for the warm parades. The life expectancy of the new uniform is 30 years with proper care. The pants have snaps on the inside of the legs to easily adjust the length. No more hemming! The uniform is machine washable so we don’t have to worry about dry cleaning costs. To see the uniform in person, stop by the band room anytime!
Thank you,
Sterling Music Boosters
