The Pella Marching Dutch hit a major fundraising milestone with the help of a science teacher aiming to march with the award-winning ensemble in their new digs. The Pella Business Women’s Club, which oversees the Dutch Market at Tulip Time, donated just over $4000 and presented it to Pella High School Science Teacher Susan Lyons at the Pella softball game to help the Pella Community Band Boosters hit an $80,000 goal to purchase new uniforms for the Marching Dutch. Lyons has been hosting an online video campaign this spring and summer to fundraise for the group called “#LetHerMarch,” featuring comedic attempts at joining the band. She says additional funds given to the non-profit supporting the Pella Marching Dutch are still welcome to help with other needs for the band. Donations can be made here.
