Sponsor Fundraiser
Students use sponsor forms and informational handouts to recruit sponsors for the school year.

Car Wash
Car washes have been hosted by OโReillyโs Auto Parts in Hayes. These fun events let the kids earn money towards large trips or the band’s fundraising goal.

Photo Fundraisers
Fall photo fundraiser features students in individual marching uniforms and the formal group photo.

Bands Along the Bay
The Marching Dukes proudly host high school bands from across our region in the Dukes Stadium. It is our largest fundraiser.

Spirit Nights
Restaurants in the community agree to donate a percentage of one nightโs profits towards the band.

Golf Tournament
We are excited to invite you to our upcoming golf tournament, where we aim to provide a fun and relaxing day on the greens of Kingsmill Resort and Country Club while raising funds for the Gloucester High School band program.

Color Guard Fundraiser
Color Guard Athletes hold a fundraiser each year to help offset the seasonโs costs of make-up, costume accessories, and supplies. Musicians and their parents join our color guard and their families in a team effort.

Butter Braid
Features high per-item profit and quality pastries that practically sell themselves.
