The Junior Redcoat Boosters
The Junior Redcoat Boosters (JRB), has evolved from a group of parents wanting to
assist the director and support their band members, to an established part of the Junior
Redcoats. We now have an enthusiastic group of dedicated parents committed to the
continuation and growth of the Junior Redcoat Band.
As with all volunteer organizations, the more volunteers, the better the organization.
More people means more ideas and a lighter load for each individual. If you are unsure
about taking on the responsibility of a position on the executive, the Juniors are always
looking for chaperones to supervise their performances and events!
