JPS Marching Band Festival
Oct. 3, 2026
The JPS Home Show is on Oct. 3, 2026. We need everyone's support to make this event a success. Did you know the home show is also marching band's biggest fundraiser? You can raise funds by selling ad space in the program journal or sponsoring an award. Students can earn community service hours by volunteering to help!
Volunteers Needed: Chaperones and Pit!
Please consider volunteering some of your time either as a chaperone (attend football games or competitions to accompany students) or as a part of pit crew (help move/load/set up
equipment).
If you'd like to learn more: join us at the football game on Wednesday, Aug 27th. Email jpstevensband@gmail.com with any questions :)
