Event Location: Hillgrove High School

West Cobb Business Association School Sponsorship Opportunity

Businesses that make a $20 or greater contribution will obtain the "Sponsor 2013 Taste of West Cobb" status. They will be allowed to include on any of their business ad copy the "Sponsor 2013 Taste of West Cobb" moniker.

100% of this donation will go directly to help support the Hillgrove Bands Music Education Program, which keeps the fine arts alive for our music students. The Hillgrove Bands Boosters Association is the operator of the Taste of West Cobb and is a 501C3 non-profit which depends on fundraising and donations to bridge the gap between what the school system provides and what our band students need to be successful.

Please help preserve Cobb’s future generations’ opportunity to participate in the arts. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Bring your $20 check made payable to WCBA to the next luncheon, give it to any Board Member at a meeting, or mail it to:

West Cobb Business Association
c/o Education Initiative
3600 Dallas Hwy. Suite 230, PMB 370
Marietta, GA 30064

Thank you.
