To furnish a cultural and recreational outlet for its members through the rehearsal and performance of music. To promote interest in and to enhance the communitys awareness of instrumental music. To promote the musical abilities experiences and achievements of the participating members. To support our communitys heritage through events that recognize national holidays and local celebrations. We do this by performing and sharing the gift of music. To encourage the participation of youth in band performances and foster their lifelong pursuit of involvement in the arts.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Assets have declined or grown slowly and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
