We have been working with 50+ local schools annually since 2008, and have helped raise over $1.4 million dollars for groups in the Cincinnati & Dayton area!!! If you, or anyone that you know, needs a new mattress, come check out our one-day event!

Brand new, name brand, top quality products with full manufacturer warranties. This includes memory foam, latex, Simmons "Black" mattresses, adjustable bases, pillows, protectors, and frames. We offer all sizes, all price ranges, delivery.

WE OFFER NO CREDIT CHECK / NO INTERST 6 MONTHS SAME AS CASH!!!

Please help pass this on and spread the word; if people are going to buy a mattress anyway, why not save money and help the Ross Band and Color Guard!

Tipp City Results

The Ross Band of Class started their contest season off at the Tipp City Invitational. Ross took 2nd in class A with an Excellent rating. Two of the hardest working groups within the band were very successful. The Ross color guard received Superior ratings from both guard judges and the Ross percussion section got Best Percussion.

Ross performs next Saturday at The Ohio State University.

Split The Pot Sign Up

Friday Night Lights will be on our new Ram field this Friday! That means it's time for Split the Pot!! This is a great fundraiser for the band! We're looking for parents to help us out by working the booth and walking around selling tickets! Volunteers are finished by halftime and won’t miss the performance. They also get into the game free!! We have assigned each grade level a specific game but feel free to sign up for another week if that fits your schedule better! Working together, we can make this fundraiser a huge success!

Tag Day 2019 is this Saturday!

/

This Saturday, August 17th is the band’s annual Tag Day. Ross High School band members will stop by homes and businesses in the Ross Local School District asking for donations. These donations go directly into the band’s account to help pay for music, instruments, repairs, uniforms, etc. Please don’t feel obligated to donate, but know that any donation is greatly appreciated. If you will not be home that day, you can still contribute by sending your donation to the high school made payable to Ross Band. Band members will be dressed in Ross Maroon Polos and will be carrying a band hat.

The band would like to thank the Ross community for its continued support!

Short Performance Friday, August 16, 2019 at The Fitton Center

We will not have rehearsal Friday morning. Instead we will meet Friday afternoon at 3:45 to load buses and travel to the Fitton Center in Hamilton for a short performance. Parents are welcome to attend. It is free. This is the Fitton Centers' season launch. This year it is tropical themed, so go all out! Students will play outside at 5 pm. They will be done by 5:30. We plan to stay at the center for a little while and eat pizza. Everyone can go inside and check out the center. If you want your student to ride home with you, please send in a written note. Otherwise they will ride buses back.
