LHS Raider Band Uniform Fund

Donation protected
Since the beginning, Lakota’s band uniforms have always combined the best of current trends, while maintaining a style that looks good throughout the life of the uniform. This uniform design maintains that tradition! The new design provides a contemporary and exciting look for the band! The jacket provides the audience with a different look based on which way the musician is facing. The new “RAIDERS” going diagonally down the front makes a bold statement and the “L” pays tribute to our heritage.

Your donation will help the LHS band to continue to represent Lakota as it always has...with PRIDE!

The new uniforms cost approximately $400 each. In order to fit for all students and to prepare for future growth, we will be purchasing 85 Uniforms and hats. The Lakota Music Boosters have begun raising funds and will continue to do so. The goal of the uniform campaign is to raise $40,000. To ensure delivery of the new uniforms in time for the 2016 football season!

Under the direction of Mrs. Stephanie Brower, the Lakota Raider Marching Band has appeared at many local events, such as: Bradner Day in the Park, local Memorial Day parades, the Clyde Winesburg parade, Genoa’s Homecoming, the Pemberville Parade, Fostoria Holiday parades, Carey Festival, Elmwood’s Showcase of Bands and at Cedar Point. The band has also played at The Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, TN, the Star Spangled Banner for the Toledo Walleye and played for the Lakota Raiders at Fifth Third Field and at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland.

The current band uniforms were worn for the first time for the opening game of the 2000 football season. These uniforms came as a result of hard work from parents, students and through the generous donations of many community members and businesses. The average life span of a band uniform is 10-12 years. Our uniforms just finished their 14th Year of service. Thanks to the care with which our uniforms have been handled by the students, directors and parents, the uniforms still look good from a distance. However, a closer examination reveals worn fabric, tears, broken zippers, and scars from years of wear and repair. After 140 Football games, and countless parades, concerts and other public performances, it is time to replace the current band uniforms.
