Music Boosters The Music Boosters’ Club was established to assist the Wheeler Music Directors in supporting the music department with various activities. The club historically has provided organized volunteer support and involvement within the music department. Support in the past has consisted of such things as assisting in planned school trips, establishing fundraising, planning and organizing refreshments at student concerts and acting as chaperones, as required, for outside school activities. In addition, the Music Boosters sponsor the soda sale at the PTO Basket raffle, which provides additional funds for student music scholarships. Students also participate in fundraisers on a year that the music groups take a trip. We need your help in small ways. By attending Music Booster meetings, you can help plan and organize activities. In addition, we need volunteers to act as officers of the Music Boosters’ Club so that we may move forward in an organized fashion to benefit our children, and to improve upon the Wheeler Music program.
