The Linden-McKinley STEM Academy marching band is gearing up for a once-in-a-lifetime chance to perform at Mardi Gras 2026 in New Orleans, but they need a huge boost from the community to make it happen. With a $100,000 fundraising goal, this isn’t just about a trip—it’s about giving local students an unforgettable experience and a national stage to shine. Imagine the pride of seeing our own band representing Columbus at such a legendary event! How can we rally together to help them reach their goal? #News #LindenMcKinley #MarchingBand
