This year the Pulaski County High School Band Boosters are sponsoring the second annual marchingapparel.com Cougar Band Classic “Chase for the New River Cup”. This contest will be hosted at Kenneth J. Dobson Stadium and Joel Hicks Field in Dublin, Virginia on Saturday, October 29, 2016.

We are offering local businesses and residents the opportunity to sponsor the awards and trophies that will be awarded to the deserving bands. This is a tax-deductible donation and will serve as an excellent means of advertising and recognition as the sponsors name is broadcast over the public address as the awards are presented. If desired, the sponsors may present the award themselves.

The bands will be divided into various classifications according to the total number of wind and percussion students. Below is a form containing a list of the awards and levels of sponsorship. You may choose how you desire to support.
