Student Rayce Pion is shown wearing one of the new uniforms the Bartow High School band is hoping to equip its members with to replace the current ones, which are 12 years old and insufficent in number to outfit the entire band. The public can provide sponsorships in varying amounts to help defray the cost of the new uniforms.
The Bartow High School band is in need of new uniforms to replace the 12-year-old outfits they currently wear. On top of that, there are not enough of them for each band member, according to Clarice Roth of the uniform fundraising committee.
With 180 members, the BHS band is now the largest in Polk County, and is in need of community support to outfit them properly for their many performances, at venues including Walt Disney World, District and State exhibitions, parades, holiday concerts and community events, among others.
