With these funds I will be able to purchase the proper brackets for our Yamaha Marching Toms (see the picture below). About a month ago, a generous donor gave us some wonderful Yamaha marching quad toms and a stadium series stand (see picture next to the Toms) for our High School Marching Band to use while we are performing in the bleachers. This stand helps the person performing on the quads to put them on a stand during the football game because they are quite heavy and we perform for about 3 hours during a football game. However, it did not come with the proper brackets for the stand. These drums are essential to every marching band and we are thrilled to have them. This bracket will ensure that while we are in the bleachers performing, the toms will be protected from damage and will last us for a very long time to come. I am hoping that there are more philanthropic supporters of music to help me purchase this $80 piece of equipment so that we can protect our equipment properly. http://www.wwbw.com/Yamaha-RMPLQADAPT2-Power-Lite-To-Stadium-Adapter-473541-i1429305.wwbw
