The event will be held on March 3

If you haven't gotten a good night's sleep lately, Gaither High is hosting a fundraiser on March 10 that might help you get some rest.

The school's band is hosting a mattress fundraiser from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. on Saturday, March 3 in the auditorium, 16200 N. Dale Mabry Highway.

The purpose is to help the 150-member band take care of their instruments and pay for a spring trip to Atlanta, said Brian Dell, band director.

The band and a company called Custom Fundraising Solutions, which helps nonprofits organize fundraisers, will divide proceeds from mattresses sold on March 3, Dell said. The band will get between $50 to $100 per mattress sold, he said.
