Hanford Music Association
The Hanford Music Association (HMA) is the Hanford High School music boosters organization. As a music parent, you are automatically a music booster. The HMA has three goals:
- to arouse and maintain an enthusiastic interest in all parts of the music programs at HHS;
- to lend all possible moral and financial support to the music programs at HHS, to provide social and other programs and awards for band personnel; and,
- to cooperate with those in charge of the music department, administration, and school board and participate in the decision-making process establishing school policy.
HMA meets monthly on the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00 pm in the music room at HHS. If you are a parent of a student in the program, you are encouraged to attend and to volunteer to help in some way. We really value all opinions and welcome input as decisions are made about the music program.
Hanford Music Association is a 501(c)3 and can be designated as your United Way recipient if you want to make a donation to the organization. Our address is "Hanford Music Association" c/o Hanford High School, 450 Hanford St., Richland, WA 99354
Booster meetings are usually the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00 pm in the Band Room.
The 2011-2012 HMA board is:
President - Ruth Ann Hickey
Vice President - Michele Braccia
Secretary - Tracey Lofton
Treasurer - Maria Stephens
