Music Man Fundraiser


On Friday, April 24th, the Wilmot Band will perform in the UW Parkside production of Meredith Wilson's "The Music Man." The Wind Ensemble and a select group of musicians from the concert bands will perform. These students must be at Parkside in their Wilmot Guardsmen uniforms by 6:30 for a dress rehearsal. Students and their parents are to provide transportation to and from the performance.



Each student will be given 10 vouchers. Simply turn these vouchers in to the usher on the night of the performance along with your ticket and your son/daughter's travel account will be credited with half the ticket price. General admission is $16.00. Extra vouchers will be available the week of the performance.


Please note: TICKETS ARE PURCHASED FROM UW PARKSIDE, VOUCHERS ARE ISSUED BY THE WILMOT BAND PARENTS. BOTH ITEMS MUST BE TURNED IN AT THE THEATRE.
