Why I'm Fundraising
"Band has truly changed my life. I want to help keep it running at its maximum potential to provide this experience to others. Our band has consistently proven itself. We got 1st at Area, and BOA Waco, as well as 3rd place at state finals a few years back. We consistently rank very high in the percussion category, like top 3 in the entire state of Texas! But the band can't consistently rank up there without help of donations. Mallets for the front ensemble alone cost more than $3000. Imagine how much everything else cost for just the percussion section, then scale it up to the entire band. We need your help and every bit counts!!"

About Our Campaign
About Us
The Cedar Ridge Band & Color Guard transforms students into confident performers, leaders, and artists. Every marcher, every musician, and every color guard member pours their heart into creating unforgettable performances—from Friday night football games to regional championships. As one of the smallest 6A marching bands in the state, our students punched above their weight in the 2025-2026 season: • 2025 BOA Waco Champions • 2025 UIL Area D Champions • 2025 UIL State Finalists (8th in Texas) These achievements prove what's possible when talent, dedication, and teamwork come together.
Why We're Fundraising
Providing these opportunities for our students requires significant resources. Quality uniforms, instrument maintenance, competition travel, meals, and equipment costs add up fast. We believe every student should have the opportunity to be part of this program, regardless of financial barriers. Your support directly funds new uniforms, instrument maintenance, competition travel, and the equipment that keeps our program thriving. Help us support the Cedar Ridge Raider Band & Color Guard.
