Purpose of the Boosters
A non-profit volunteer organization which supports the Woodland Middle School music departments.
Our goal is to raise funds and organize volunteers to support the students in band and choir.
Funds raised by the Wildcat Music Boosters help to pay for items that would not typically be paid for by the school district budget.
Examples include:
Merit scholarships for Middle School band and choir students (to be used for lessons or other music supplies)
Full-tuition scholarships for band and choir students to attend University of Wisconsin-Whitewater summer music camps
8th grade pins for band and choir students
Fun activities and rewards for our musicians (donut breakfast, end of year party)
Travel to band and choir competitions and/or field trips
We invite you to support the Woodland Music Programs in lots of ways.
1) Check the volunteer section of this page often (especially before performances) for volunteer opportunities.
2) Support our various fundraisers throughout the school year – Spirit Wear, Butter Braids, etc.
3) Follow us on social media
