We need everyone’s help to achieve this goal!

We Need YOU
We are asking every student to find sponsors for this event! If every student found between $15-25 in sponsorships, the IMA would surpass our goal! It costs the IMA approximately $100,000 annually to support instrumental music at Easton Area High School. This money goes towards the following:
- Marching Band (including band camp, parades, competitions)
- Strings Camp (including guest clinicians, food)
- Guest Clinicians throughout the year for all students
- Equipment purchases (as needed to support the growing program)
- Instrumental Music Banquet & Senior Recital
- Meals (at various points throughout the year)
- Scholarships for graduating seniors (six $1,000 scholarships)
- Performances Tours for the Instrumental Music Department
