DRUM-A-THON

The Pflugerville High School Drumline will be participating in the 2nd annual Drum-A-Thon in order to raise money for new equipment and supplies.  The students will be out and about collecting pledges from local businesses in order to support their 24-hour drumming marathon, which will be held at PHS from June 13th at 6:00 PM to June 14th at 6:00 PM.

We would love any support from the community in our efforts to provide the best equipment for these very talented young musicians.  If you or your company would be interested in making a donation to the Panther Band Drumline, please send an email to Mr. Stoughton at  derek.stoughton@pflugervilleisd.net and he will give you any information that you will need to make a contribution!

All gifts that are received are tax-deductible, and if your business decides to make a donation, your business name and/or company logo will be included on the back of our Drum-A-Thon T-shirt, which is part of the official uniform of the Panther Band Drumline.
