Lakota West Bands Update: December 31

Jazz ‘n Cakes Planning Meetings

  • Planning Meetings have started!
    • Be a part of this year’s Jazz ‘n Cakes event crew!  We’re looking for volunteers to help plan this year’s Jazz ‘n Cakes on Saturday, March 30th .  Jazz ‘n Cakes is the band’s second largest fundraiser and proceeds support not just jazz band, but all concert bands, marching band, and colorguard.  Get involved in the overall event planning, or you can lead or join a team to coordinate ticket sales, advertising, the basket raffle, or coordinate day-of-event activities.  Our first meeting will be Wednesday, January 2nd at the West Chester MidPointe Library in room C at 7 pm.  We always have a great group of fun band parents (and grandparents) and would love to have you join us.
