Duncan Band Boosters are hosting their 13th Annual Mattress Fundraiser on Saturday, January 31st, from 10am-5pm. This may sound odd, 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 Boosters.

Please help to spread the word!
