Music Boosters
We would like to Welcome Parents, Family and Friends of Logan Elm High School and Junior High Band and Choir Members to the Logan Elm Music Boosters. We Need Your Help!!!! The Music Boosters are a great financial support to the Band and Choir to purchase items that are not in the Logan Elm budget. Due to the shortage of funds available to support the music programs in the Logan Elm Schools. The burden is falling on the Logan Elm Music Boosters for finical support. We also do many things that help the programs that are not financial. For the 2006/2007 school year the boosters have covered a major part of the cost to keep Music in the schools. Totaling over $30,000, purchasing needed items for the programs.
Logan Elm Music Boosters We are a 501C3 non-prophet organization. What one person can do is limited What a group of people can do is unlimited Your support is greatly appreciated by the students and staff of the Logan Elm High School, McDowell Middle School Music Department and the Logan Elm Music Boosters!!!!

Elm Music Boosters Myths Myth #1: "Music Boosters only support the High School music program."Fact: We support the Logan Elm music departments Jr. High and High school financially with their music program budget and with other requests when asked. It may appear that we only help the High School because there are more opportunities presented at that level. Myth #2: "Boosters only support the High School Marching Band."Fact: We do support the Marching Band, but not exclusively. However we also support all programs, including the Marching Band. It may appear that we only support the Marching Band at times because many things pertaining to this group are addressed during our meetings at the beginning of the year, and because a very large number of students participate in the Marching Band activity. We support the Choirs and show Choir along with Concert Bands. Myth #3: "All of the Boosters decisions are made by the officers or directors."Fact: You always can give your suggestions to help make programs better and be a part of the decision making process. We need all the help we can get!! The meetings are open to all and you may be part of the voting members at no cost to you. All you need to do is show up at the meetings. Myth #4: "That some one else will take care of the needs and help”Fact: The school has a tight budget and without the Music Boosters the music program would not be what it is today. The Boosters are all volunteers and with approximately 400 students in the music programs, junior high and high school we only have 10 to 20 active members at our meetings in supporting the needs. We always welcome new members and helping hands with equipment, uniforms, chaperones, fundraising and helping with special events needs. Myth #5: “I can’t afford to be a Music Booster” Fact: The Music Boosters cost nothing to be a member. Just be at a meeting or work a fundraiser event, register with the Music Booster organization and you can be a voting member. The Music Boosters work hard to try to keep the cost of being in the music programs as low as possible all students. Logan Elm Music Booster Membership Registration
