The monies donated will fund the entire trophy and awards table for the event.  Mr. Kosko spearheaded the campaign via social media after learning about the West Essex Band Boosters’ efforts to organize and fund the Competition.

Contributions came in from as far away as Minnesota and Arizona, he noted to Mr. Fabrizio, Mrs. Swanick and the WEBB membership during their meeting on Monday October 7.

WEBB expresses its sincere appreciation to Mr. Kosko and all the alumni who donated!   Click here for more information about the Competition. We hope to see you there!
