Pine-Richland band fundraiser
The Pine-Richland Band Boosters organization is selling Kennywood tickets as a fundraiser to support the Pine-Richland Marching Band. Is one of the largest fundraisers annually.
The cost for a ticket to the P-R Kennywood day on Aug. 19 is $36. Tickets for any other date are $40. All tickets are valid most days of the season, not just on P-R Kennywood Day. There may be a $10 surcharge on black-out days (details on the tickets).
Purchasing tickets through the band is less expensive than tickets online or at the gate, which can be as much as $65.
Tickets may be purchased throughout the Kennywood season at NexTier Bank in Wexford, NexTier Bank in Gibsonia, and the Pine Township Community Center.
For details, contact Kennywood ticket chair/ticket sales coordinator Amy Hayden at ea.hayden@verizon.net.
