La Jolla High Band Storms the Village

is running a month-long fundraiser to support the band program. For the month of November, Smashburger will donate $1 for every San Diego burger sold at the La Jolla location to the local high school.

The band, lead by director of instrumental music Michael Fiedler, said the funding will be used for everything from new instruments and music to trips.

“Fundraising is everything because we don’t have a budget,” he said.

The band took to the streets to kick off the month-long fundraiser. They stopped numerous times along the route up Prospect Street to Torrey Pines Road and then down Girard Avenue to entertain businesses and rush hour traffic.

Another way to support the La Jolla public school music programs is to shop the rummage sale at La Jolla High School’s auditorium on Saturday and Sunday from 7 a.m. to noon. Proceeds will benefit the high school and Muirlands Middle School’s music department. La Jolla High is located at 750 Nautilus Street, La Jolla, CA.
