The band council is elected at the end of each marching season by the members of the Cougar Marching Band. Each officer serves a term from band banquet to band banquet. The band council is used by the director as a sounding board for new ideas for the upcoming season. The band council also is responsible for presenting to ASWSU funding committees each spring. Due to the band council's success over the past four years, the Cougar Marching Band has received upwards of $500,000 in funds which are used to purchase new uniforms and instruments, provide game-day meals, and increase member stipends.
