Welcome to the website for the Francis Howell North High School Band Boosters Association! The purpose of our organization is to support our band directors and students and through our involvement to promote excellence in the FHN band and guard programs.
No matter what talent or skill you bring, there is a place for you in the FHNBBA. You will have an opportunity to be involved and to provide a meaningful high school experience for our students. This is the place to make friends. This is the place to create good memories and to develop in our students a lifelong appreciation for the wonderful gift of music.
The FHNBBA is for parents and supporters of all of the FHN band and guard organizations. We support the Concert Band, Winter Guard, Knightpride Marching Band, Jazz Band, Color Guard, Symphonic Band and Winter Drumline. We advocate for the performing arts throughout the Francis Howell School District.
Join us as we achieve greater heights and celebrate the joy and beauty that music brings to our lives!

Art in Motion Fundraising
I am forwarding an "almost complete" copy of our list of fundraising for art in motion 2012.
Still hoping to get a definite response from a few (Walmart, Shop N' Save), but especially Kohl's! As of yesterday no one had volunteered at Harvester Kohl's, however the manager said that they still do not have work schedules for that week, and they tend to sign up last minute. I've promised to provide them food if they give us 3 hours. The manager said that she also forwarded our request to the O'Fallon, Creve Coeur and Bridgeton stores, so if you know of anyone who works at any of those Kohl's please pass a good word. We could use some inside help getting Kohl's employees to volunteer at our event. All we need is 5 vols. from each location for 3 hours (Kohl's donates $500 per store location that recruits 5 vols.) Eric, maybe you could put a note in the FHNBB email to see if anyone works at Kohl's or knows any Kohl's employees they could get to sign up.
