Event Description:

This event is held outside TT Cranny field before the Tiger Varsity Football Game vs. Oskaloosa. Each dinner includes a pork or vegetarian BBQ sandwich, chips, beans, choice of dessert and a bottled water for $10. Sandwiches are also available for $6. To Go dinners are an option, or enjoy your meal at the picnic tables provided. Proceeds from the event go directly back to the Grinnell Band program. This is our largest fundraiser of the year and there are three ways band families can get involved:

• We are seeking donations and volunteers! Check out the  BBQ Fundraiser Sign Up to see how you can help out.

• Tell your friends, family, co-workers and help us spread the word. Attached is a social media post we welcome you to share.

• Join us September 13 at the BBQ Fundraising Dinner

The role of the Band Boosters is to support the Grinnell band program from 5th-12th grades. One way we do that is through financial support, from yearly honor band entry fees to the purchase of marching band uniforms as needed. We maintain a fund to assist band students with financial need. In addition, we are able to provide logistical support by fitting band uniforms and coordinating concessions for Large Group Music and Solo/Ensemble contests, as well as other activities.

Grinnell Band Boosters are always welcoming new volunteers. The Band Booster Board is made up of a parent representative from each grade level.  We are currently in need of 5th, 6th and 11th grade representatives. We meet monthly during the school year for about an hour. The next Band Booster Board meeting will be held Tuesday, September 3 at 5:30pm in the Grinnell High School Band Room.  If you are interested in helping or would like more information, please  send an email to  grinnellbandb oosters@gmail.com.
