Anyone can contribute beginning Monday at noon, ending Friday at noon.
Goodwill will remove the donation trailer on Friday afternoon to be weighed. PLEASE MAKE SURE ALL ITEMS ARE IN THE TRAILER BY NOON. The School Band with the most weight will be declared the winner for that week and receive a $400 scholarship from Arby’s. The other School Band participating that week will receive a $200 scholarship from Arby’s.
Your School Band can also receive a bonus by having someone donate a car, truck, boat or RV during the collection period. If you have a donor who would like to donate a vehicle, have them call 228-AUTO. Tell the operator the Band Name they would like it to qualify for and the Band will receive a 1000-pound bonus.
At the end of the regular High School Band Season, the School Band that collected the most items by weight, during their assigned week, will be declared the Drive to Victory 2019 Champion and will receive an additional $1000.00 scholarship courtesy of Arby’s.
