Columbus City Band
Mission
The purposes for which the organization is formed are: (1) It is proposed that the Columbus Parks & Recreation Department Bank, traditionally a summer activity, be expanded into a full, 12-month, year-round program henceforth to be named the Columbus City Band. (2) It is the intent of this organization to provide the citizens of the Columbus community with an outlet for, and an atmosphere conducive to, the expression of musical talent through a continuing concert/symphonic band program. (3) The Columbus City Band will strive for excellence in its duality of performance, while encouraging all who are interested to participate. Enjoyment of the musical experience is the primary goal. (4) Through the years, town bands have been the principle exponents of American musical culture at the grass roots level — playing for social and ceremonial occasions. Generations of Americans have cultivated their musical tastes at the railing of the town bandstand. Community bands provide one of the few continuing musical expressions for thousands of talented performers; and a vital cultural source for the listener. It is a rich heritage that must be preserved.

Not Rated
Columbus City Band cannot be rated because Charity Navigator has not received the public data required to create a star rating.
To receive a star rating, a charity must be a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) public charity. Private foundations, consolidated subsidiaries, and organizations with revoked or inactive IRS status are not eligible for a rating.
Eligible charities must also meet the following criteria:
- Charity Navigator must directly receive at least three electronically filed IRS Form 990s within the past six years (these do not need to be consecutive).
- At least two of the four most recent filings must be the standard Form 990, and the most recent filing cannot be a Form 990-PF.
- Report total functional expenses greater than zero, with program expenses not exceeding total expenses.
- Have no Charity Navigator "Giving Not Recommended" alert.
A nonprofit may be listed but not rated if it does not yet meet Form 990 filing requirements, is newly registered, files only Form 990-EZ or 990-N, or is otherwise ineligible for a star rating.
