The Airport High School Band Boosters was founded in 1985 with a mission to support the AHS band programs by promoting community involvement through concerts, parades, marching band and various projects throughout the year. We continue to support the students in their growth through mentorship, collaboration and exposing them to diverse environments.
Through the years, we have raised funds through our two annual fundraisers: our thrilling Haunted Forest and large Craft Show. One of our most impressive accomplishments was the construction of our beautiful high school band room. In the last few years, we have purchased new marching band uniforms and added new instruments to our equipment.
