THE MEYERSON PROGRAM

Each attendee at the concert will receive a beautiful full color program when they arrive. In addition to the order of performance, the program will feature tributes to our amazing High School and Junior High band students. Please use this opportunity to celebrate your child’s hard work and dedication, whether they are an incoming 9th grader about to begin their high school journey, a senior celebrating years of membership in the Mighty Mustang Band, or anywhere in between.  

Get together with a friend for a joint tribute or celebrate an entire section. Business ads are welcome and will reach hundreds of attendees! Let’s fill this program and make it a special keepsake for all of our amazing musicians!
