Our mission
To Support the Students and Teachers of the Instrumental Music Department at the Barbara Ingram School for the Arts
The Organization of Musical Parents (OOMPa) is the name we have given to the fundraising and support group of the Instrumental Music Department at Barbara Ingram School for the Arts. We support the Department by raising funds for instruments, music, repairs, travel, and competition and performance opportunities.
We hold three major fundraisers each year with a scattering of smaller ones. The first is the Band Gear Sale, the second is The Grand Snow Ball and Auction, and the Third is The Edmund McIlhenny Chili Cook Off and Music Festival. We invite and encourage parental involvement in raising funds for the Department. Remember, the more we raise, the less you have to pay for your student to take part in the travel and performance opportunities.
