CMSBA

The Calgary Marching Showband Association (CMSBA) is a not profit fundraising organization that works endlessly to support the Calgary Stampede Showband in all their travel opportunities.  The Board of Directors is comprised of nine voluntary parents elected to sit as guiding visionaries of the association. Our efforts of fundraising range from working Bingos & Casino’s, selling 50/50 tickets through the yearly Ten Day Stampede to selling Poinsettias & Plants at Christmas.

Whenever you have the opportunity to support the CMSBA you are helping the Showband maintain their world class level. We are looking forward to an exciting and adventurous year ahead, we hope you will join us where ever possible and be part of this world class team. We thank you in anticipation of your continued support.

We feel the Showband is a unique world class educational and performance program and we at the CMSBA continuously amazed by their yearly efforts and achievements.

On behalf of the board
