Help the Argyle ISD Band celebrate our 1st annual 'Band on the Run' event on Saturday, May 11th, 2024!
All proceeds from this race will go directly to the Argyle Band Boosters and benefit the Argyle ISD High School Band. Please help us by registering to run or walk, or even by donating directly to support the activities of the band booster program. If you are looking to make a big impact for a great cause, please sign up or donate today!
Band Boosters are comprised of any parent who has a student in the band program, and we are proud to say we have a very high volunteer support group. The boosters assist the band by providing financial support for activities, scholarships, and private lessons, as well as any projects outside the domain of the school district's revenue. The Argyle Band Boosters is a 501(3)(c) non-profit organization that supports the band program.
Bring the entire family, your friends, and colleagues for a fun-filled musical morning! This is a community event open to all runners and non-runners, so we hope to see you on race day!
