Chris Partain's HONOR BAND OF AMERICA Fund

Hello. My son's name is Christopher Partain. He has been a percussionist is the Marion Arkansas School band for several years. He has received many, many awards and accolades for his accomplishments in All-Region & All-State Concert & Jazz bands in Junior High & Senior High. He recently qualified & auditioned for the highly prestigious NATIONAL level HONOR BAND OF AMERICA... and was ACCEPTED!! He was chosen out of all the High School percussionists in the whole nation that auditioned. His mother & I will need to pay $1100 in fees for his housing while in Indianapolis, Indiana in March of 2025 for the Honor Band's festival and performance. Not included in the $1100 is the cost of his mother & I staying in Indianapolis for 4 to 5 days to take him, attend the concert, and bring him home. This is my first time ever asking for any assistance in funding his amazing band journey. I just wanted to give anyone who felt generous the chance to help out a bright, young, super talented kid with parents who may not have all the financial resources needed. Thank you SO MUCH to anyone who lends a hand. We will do everything in our power to get him there no matter what...but a helping hand is always welcome! This means the world to him. It's another notch on his belt for scholarship opportunities, and it will help his goal of graduating college and becoming a music teacher! ❤️
