“Class of ’95” gives financial assistance to JHHS Marching Band for uniforms

JHHS Band Director Trey Porchay (l) and members of the “Tropical Thunder” Marching Band

Giving Back! That is what the Jonesboro-Hodge High School graduating class of 1995 did this past week when they presented JHHS Band Director Trey Porchay and the members of the Tiger “Tropical Thunder’ Marching Band a tremendous financial gift in the amount of $1,800.00 that will go toward the purchase of new band uniforms. 

Currently, the Jonesboro-Hodge High School athletic department and band are in the process of attempting to buy new uniforms for the band (shown below) and are asking former alumni and graduating classes along with anyone who would like to particpate to provide assistance by making donations to the cause.
