Kenwood works hard to maintain its ties to the community here in Madison County. Madison Central Band has the extraordinary opportunity to participate in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade in New York City in 2019. However, travel is expensive and the trip costs $1,100. Many students are struggling to raise the funds. So, Kenwood hosted a benefit and sold boxed lunches to many different businesses in our community. Through the efforts and generosity of our staff and local organizations we raised $1,262.75. Our goal was to raise enough money to cover the expenses of one child and we are thrilled to have met that goal! We wish the Madison Central Band the best of luck on their New York trip! We also want to issue a huge thank you to all the volunteers and staff at Kenwood who made this possible.
