Help Us Spring For New Uniforms!
You can help our uniform fund grow by ordering spring flowers, plants or hanging baskets from any West band member now through May 1st. Shady Lane Greenhouses is once again offering a variety of annuals and perennials that will add beauty to your landscaping and this year will also add more “green” to our fund in order to help us outfit the Cadets of Waukesha West in all new uniforms beginning with our 2019 season. Band families are encouraged to invite friends, family, neighbors, co-workers and alumni to place orders so we can reach our ambitious fundraising goal as quickly as possible since we’ll have to begin the uniform ordering process soon!
Click here for sales details and order forms and see Shady Lane’s website for more photos. Flower sales run from now through May 1st and pickup will take place outside the auditorium entrance on Wednesday, May 23rd.
