Amador Music depends on donations from families to maintain our programs. Your donations help fund many things that district funding cannot fully cover:
MARCHING BAND UNIFORMS • FIELD SHOW MUSIC • CHOREOGRAPHY • COMPETITION FEES • PROPS • TRANSPORTATION • COLOR GUARD EQUIPMENT • INSTRUMENT PURCHASES • INSTRUMENT REPAIRS • SHEET MUSIC • COACHES FOR ALL ENSEMBLES
While students may participate regardless of ability to donate, the annual budget is developed on the premise that all families will contribute as able. All donations are greatly appreciated, even if you cannot give the full amount. Please contact the AFM treasurer (treasurer@amadormusic.org) with any questions.

Marching Band & Color Guard with Wind Ensemble: $1,530
Wind Ensemble I/II only: $190
Concert Band (Purple/Gold) only: $60
