Spirit Night Every Other Monday Starting in February..... Please share. Anyone can go in and eat and proceeds go to the band!

You are invited to the Eustis Middle School Mustang Spirit Night. These nights are on the second and fourth Monday’s of each month from February to May.

Spirit Night is a fundraiser given to The Eustis Middle School Mustang Band by Black Bear Smokehouse at 18750 Us Highway 441, Mt Dora, FL. (352) 383-2327. Black Bear Smokehouse is known for giving back to their community.

Anyone who eats or drinks at Black Bear Smokehouse between 5:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. on these days will participate in this giving back to the community event. 10 percent of every dollar made during these times will be given to The Eustis Middle School Mustang Band.

With local sponsorship getting harder and harder to find this Spirit Night will help the band program. The band program receives only 6 percent of their needed funds per year. The Eustis Mustang Music Association must raise the rest of the near $25,000 budget. Please come on out enjoy a great meal and give back to the community, helping these 6th to 8th grade students. There are approximately 160 students in the band and that includes 30 Jazz Band Members, 30 Steel Drum Band Members, 3 Concert Bands and a Marching Band. The band is invited to join many festivals, local events and contests. With many of these having entry and transportation fees. The band also has a scholarship program for anyone who can not afford to join.

If you have any questions regarding this event or the Eustis Mustang Band Program please contact The Eustis Mustang Music Association President Cherrice Purvee at eustismustangmusicassociation@gmail.com
