"McNeil High School Band Boosters" is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that supports the McNeil Maverick Band and Color Guard. The Boosters provide financial support for most of the Maverick Band's basic operating expenses. We buy instruments, pay for the music and marching shows, pay for contest entry fees and transportation, and cover the entire cost of the Color Guard, including the Director's salary. The Round Rock ISD does NOT provide funding for these things - and our Band Booster group is constantly involved in fund-raising efforts to cover these expenses. We also support band programs at Deer Park Middle School and Cedar Valley Middle School with contributions and in-kind support.
Every parent is a member of the Band Boosters, and we need everyone's support and participation. We communicate to band/guard families through e-mail, Booster meetings and the band website, http://www.mcneilband.org. Please visit the Charms website to check for important dates and to make sure the e-mail address listed in your student’s profile is correct, as this is the e-mail address we will be using to send communications. In addition, the Band Directors will be updating the Charms calendar with important dates for the band/guard. Be sure to check the website regularly. See the link to Charms in the menu bar to the right.
If you need assistance with updating your information in Charms, please send an e-mail to sysadmin@mcneilband.org . If you are not receiving e-mails on a regular basis, there is most likely an issue with the e-mail information in Charms.
Band/Guard Booster meetings will be held on the first Thursday evening of each month at 7:00 p.m. in the McNeil High School Band Hall. Fall meetings are crucial to organize fundraising activities and keep abreast of marching season needs; spring meetings include competitions, election of new officers and planning for next year. We urge all band/guard parents to attend and welcome your input!
