Other ways to obtain an instrument:

It is very common for families to buy an instrument and for their child to graduate from high school.  Usually the instruments end up in a closet. So, ask a  neighbor, ask someone at church, ask someone at soccer practice or football practice and if you find an instrument, offer to buy it from them after it has been inspected by a repair tech or director.

E-Bay – Please only use e-bay for specific manufactures and models.  Good instruments do no have to say “Band Director Approved”  Please talk to Mr. D before using this method.
