The Royalty Contest is one of the Endowment’s two annual campaigns, raising funds that support an annual grant to the S&F Band and for Community Grants to area schools. Band members compete for three coveted titles by raising donations for the Endowment. The three top fundraisers choose their title and are crowned at the Abominaball, the band’s holiday celebration.
