Musician Mask Mania

The Description
With these funds I will purchase the materials needed to make musicians masks for all of our band and choir students (I have volunteers to make them). It's rough wearing a class through an entire class (let alone an entire day), but when you specifically need to use large amounts of air to produce sound on your instrument (vocal cords for singing or pushing it through a wind instrument), it gets more complicated. As performers, we want to keep each other safe, but we also desperately want to play and sing together! These musicians masks (one style for wind players, and another for vocalists) make it easier to use all the air we need without getting as tired, and while still keeping each other safe.
Back Up Plan
If we do not reach our goal I will ask for direct materials donations from each band/choir family.

Purchases in progress:-)
October 6, 2020
All of the foundation building materials for the masks have been purchased, we're just waiting for delivery:-). Fabric choice is being finalized, and we're going to order pre-made band masks for the marching band wind players to save time (and thanks to the extra funds raised beyond our initial goal!). Directions and template pieces have been provided by our lead sewer so that our volunteer fabric cutters can get going shortly.
180% of our goal!!!

And still 17 hours to go:-). Thank you all, again:-). School logos, spare masks, and now we'll show some department spirit by getting music print fabric instead of plain red cotton!

Less than 4 hours, and funded at 122%! Thank you so much, everyone:-). With the extra, we can make spare masks and/or purchase small school logos to attach to each mask. This is so exciting!!!!
75% of the way there!

Typo! Sharp eyes caught it:-). The second sentence in the description should say "It's rough wearing a mask through an entire class...."
