This annual 5K march is our largest fundraiser and it’s easy to help!
What is March-A-Thon?
The RHS Golden Eagle Band’s 5K March-a-Thon is an annual tradition you won’t want to miss! As our largest fundraiser, the March-a-Thon helps support band activities and supplies scholarships so every student in grades 6th-12th of the RHS attendance zone has the opportunity to participate.
This annual tradition is also our gift to the community by providing a joyful musical experience throughout neighborhoods surrounding the high school.
There are many ways you can show your support:
- As a Corporate Sponsor, the event provides maximum exposure for your company’s name and logo during our parade and beyond.
- As a neighbor, you can donate $75 to have the band play a special lawn concert in front of your very own home. Details below.
- And, of course, general donations are also very much appreciated. If you are sponsoring a student, please be sure to include their name when making your donation.
Thank you!

Richardson Area Band Club
CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP
In appreciation of your financial support, we showcase our corporate sponsors in band materials shared with a network of approximately 225 GEB families who call the Richardson area home.
All tax-deductible donations help support band activities, keep fees reasonable, and supply scholarships to ensure every student has the opportunity to participate.
LAWN CONCERT DONATION
Lawn concerts, made possible by your donation, are the very best part of our March-a-Thon. For a donation of $75 or more, the band will stop in front of a house within the map boundaries and play 3 songs. An approximate performance time will be provided closer to the date. Lawn concerts will occur between 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.
If you want a lawn concert and don’t live within the boundaries, please coordinate with a friend who does. We love seeing groups of friends, families, and neighbors join together to enjoy a personal lawn performance.

GENERAL DONATION
Band participation requires high commitment and discipline from all members to make notes of music jump off the page into a memorable marching or concert performance. Your support as a 2025 – 2026 GEB sponsor means students and families can focus on the music instead of high band fees.
