WE MAKE IT HAPPEN

The Lakota East Upbeat Club (LEUC) is the band booster organization that supports Lakota East Band programs. Throughout the year, the LEUC works to provide financial and volunteer support for the Lakota East Bands. Whether it's raising funds for new equipment or finding a driver for the truck, the LEUC makes it happen.

Let's face it: our kids are busy. We work together so they can focus on being excellent musicians, incredible students, and outstanding leaders. LEUC works closely with the administration, directors, and band members, focusing primarily on volunteer coordination. This ensures smooth transitions, seamless operational logistics, and consistent forward momentum. At the end of the day, the support we provide contributes to the success of the students and the entire band program.

Join the Ranks

If you have a student in Lakota East Bands, you're already one of us! Every parent or guardian is automatically enrolled, no fee required. LEUC is always looking for volunteers. There's a lot of talent in Lakota, and it doesn't end with the amazing musicians in our band program. If you have a professional skill or personal hobby you think might benefit our organization, please CONTACT US.

LEUC extends an open invitation to every band family to attend the meetings. We'll discuss current action items, upcoming events, and brainstorm ideas for future initiatives. All contributions are welcome, so please join us at our next meeting (listed on the Band Calendar). Hope to see you there!

If you want to help but don't have the extra time to volunteer, we also accept monetary donations. Just click the PayPal link at the bottom of the page, and your contribution will be deposited into the Lakota East Upbeat Club account. No amount is too small! Donations may also be mailed to:
