New Horizons Band
of Summit and Stark Counties
Providing the Opportunity For Life Enrichment Through Embracing Music
The New Horizons Band of Stark and Summit Counties (NHB) was formed in 2005. In 2007, NHB was incorporated and registered with the Internal Revenue Service as a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization.
Our activities are funded by membership fees, grants, and donations. Pre-COVID, our membership roster was growing at a healthy pace and topped-off at 130 with members from communities all around North East Ohio. Our on-line offerings have helped to reach new members from much further away. We currently have 80 active members who continue to enhance their skills and provide musical enjoyment for audiences. We encourage interested musicians – at any level – to join us.
We welcome donations to support our expansion of music-making opportunities for adults. Donations to NHB are used to sponsor scholarships, purchase new music for the band, rent a truck(s) to get equipment to performance sites, instructor salaries, and much more.
There are several ways you can help us realize our goals. Contributions in the form of memorials, personal tributes, or individual donations – no matter how large or small – will go far to help our experienced and budding adult musicians discover their own harmonious new horizons. Thank you for your generous support.
