Help Jill Perform in London's New Year’s Day Parade 2026

Please help us raise money for Jill’s trip to London! The Pickerington High School Marching Bands have been invited by the Lord Mayor of Westminster to perform in London’s New Year’s Day Parade on January 1, 2026! This is a wonderful opportunity both musically and educationally. Jill plays the trombone in the band and began her music career on the piano 5 years ago. She is very much looking forward to this once in a lifetime opportunity to travel and play in front of millions of people. On top of performing, while there, they will also be taken on educational tours. Places include - Stonehenge, Windsor Castle, the Shakespeare-Globe Theater, 2012 Olympic Park, Houses of Parliment, Big Ben, and a few others. Instead of typical fundraisers (with you having to decide what color wrapping paper or flavor popcorn you won’t use or eat) we were given this idea so that your full donation will go directly to Jill instead of split with a company or the band. Thank you very much for considering a donation to make this dream a reality for Jill!
