Friends & Family,

Last year, many of you helped make a dream come true — and Attikus marched his very first season with Pacific Crest Drum & Bugle Corps, one of the most elite programs in the country. At just 15, he earned a contract that waived the age requirement, proving his dedication, talent, and heart.

Now, Attikus has been invited back for his second season, and he’s doing everything in his power to make it happen. The total cost to participate is $7,000, and he is determined to start fundraising now so that all of his fees are covered before he heads out on tour in the summer of 2026.

This experience is more than just performing — it’s months of intense training, travel across the nation, and the chance to grow as both a musician and a young leader. Every donation, big or small, helps bring him closer to the field and keeps his dream alive.

Your support last year made the impossible possible. With your help again, Attikus can continue to inspire, compete, and represent Pacific Crest with pride.

With love and gratitude,

The SWEEDs
