10/4/23 - You are invited to the Middleton Cross Plains Orchestra Boosters Welcome Meeting

Hello, Orchestra families!

On Wednesday, October 4, at 6:30pm in the MHS Orchestra Room (Room 1200) we are excited to hold the optional first meeting of the Middleton-Cross Plains Orchestra Boosters (MCPOB). By the fact that your student is enrolled in orchestra in grades 4-12, you are automatically a member of this support organization–welcome!

Our meeting on 10/4 is to begin to find parents who are interested in becoming an active part of the volunteer team that will support string music education in our school district. There are many opportunities to take part at whatever level you can handle. From a few hours total to a few hours per week, giving just your time to making use of special skills you have, at any grade level, we are excited to have our parents take an expanded role in providing the best musical experiences possible for your students.

Every parent interested in volunteering is invited to our gathering. If your schedule or inclinations mean that you cannot provide assistance this year, thank you for supporting your student.
