My Project

Good afternoon and Happy New Year. The purpose and reason for help with this printer is to help and build our band program in so many different ways. With this printer, I will have the ability to print out our marching drill charts for the field, music scores, and booklets for students to study and practice at home. Another great feature is I will also have the ability to print out banners to hang or any portraits of band program for recruitment and showcases. Another high school band director gave me this insight about this printer, and it has helped his band program tremendously. With all he showed me it does, I would love for my kids to have this as well. Please help us with this project. Thank you!
