Join the Newton Band Boosters on Sept. 27, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at the parking lot of Advance Auto Parts in Newton for a delicious BBQ feast and help raise funds for our talented band students! All proceeds will go towards supporting their trips, supplies, and other essential needs. We will have a Ribs Plate for $12, and a Chicken Plate for $10. Plates will include baked beans, potato salad, bread, and a drink of choice.
There are three way you can help: Come hungry and enjoy a great meal supporting a great cause; Spread the word and share this even with friends, family, and neighbors; and if you can’t make it, consider making a donation to support the band.
