We have launched a Go Fund Me Campaign for support to get to the NABBA Championships in Fort Wayne, IN. Support Us!
How the Funding will be used:
Every one of our musicians donates their time, travel, and expertise to the brass band, no one is paid to participate! That is the reason we are asking for help to travel and compete at the Championships April 5-7, 2019.
The Championship registration is $1,600 however, our Founder/Artistic Director has already personally paid the band's fee to compete. That leaves travel, lodging, and uniforms that we are asking help for.
Flights to Fort Wayne and back to Denver are currently about $250 per person. We have gotten a group rate on hotel lodgings, the competition rate is $150 per night with 4 musicians to a room. In addition, we are asking for help to acquire uniforms to perform at the championships in. They uniforms provide a traditional brass band look that will set us above our current performance attire. The performance jackets are $65 per musician.
All told it is roughly $12,000 for the whole band to travel and compete at the Championships. We would appreciate your help in sending us to our very first competition!
Any donations above the amount needed to attend the Championships will be put back into the Colorado Brass for future development of the band.
