Southern Lee High and San Lee Middle Band are hosting their 2nd Annual Mattress Fundraiser on Sunday, May 10th, from Noon - 5pm. This may sound weird, but it is the best way to buy a new mattress because the prices can’t be beaten, the brands are the same as retail stores, and every purchase benefits the Band Students. Please help to spread the word!
