What is Hooked On Bands, Inc., and Why Should You Join?
Hooked On Bands, Inc., (HOB) is a non-profit corporation. In partnership with Ward-Brodt Music, HOB sponsors performances of the Madison New Horizons Concert and Swing Bands. The bands may be engaged through HOB to perform for a variety of public and private events and fundraisers. The Madison New Horizons Concert Band performs free public concerts during the Christmas Holiday and on Mother’s Day, and the New Horizons Swing Band performs at different venues several times throughout the year. HOB sponsors an annual Fall Door County Band Camp open to all mature amateur musicians.
HOB is Member Driven
HOB is a membership organization and the membership elects the board of directors. The organization raises funds to offset the costs of events and performances and to purchase and repair instruments that it makes available for the Madison New Horizons Bands to use. HOB makes contributions to fundraising activities that are consistent with its mission to promote the sharing of music with the community. Members are welcome to submit requests for sponsorship or contributions to the board for consideration.
