2017 Annual Band Day Survey



Your feedback is extremely important and valuable to the LHAB.  Please follow the link below to respond to our 2017 Annual Alumni Band Day Survey.  If you attended Band Day this year, you will be asked to respond to a few questions to help your officers plan to make next year's Band Day as good or better than this year's.  If you DID NOT attend this year, your response to only 3 questions is still very helpful.
