We want to have another great year and sell all 1000, and you don't want to miss out!  As a reminder, the money that we make from the sale of the lotto tickets goes towards offsetting costs for the marching band!

Looking forward to a great year of music! We will be back with updates as we have them. Thanks for always supporting the band!

We can't wait to hear the incredible voices of our WLN Choir this year! Thank you for supporting the choirs, you make our hearts sing!

Orchestra is about to be music to our ears! We can't wait for the performances! We are so grateful for your ongoing support. Speaking of support...

HELP WANTED: The Music Boosters is looking for an orchestra representative. This person would give us the inside scoop on all things orchestra. If you know someone who might be interested, please contact Liz Vachon at lizvachon@gmail.com. 

Mrs. H, our band reps, and every single student is so very thankful to our volunteers at home and away camp. You took time out of your busy lives to ensure that our Marching Knights could have a successful and enjoyable camp experience. We also want to say thank you for completing the paperwork that went along with volunteering. 

We wanted to recognize our FIVE NIGHTERS and shout them out for rising to the occasion and staying EVERY SINGLE NIGHT OF AWAY CAMP! You showed the kind of bravery, stamina, and sheer grit that would make Dan Campbell say, "Yep, we're going for it on 4th down." You are the the GOAT! Thank you Five Nighters!
