Anamosa Music Boosters
The Mission of the Anamosa Music Boosters is to support and enrich the music education experience for students in the Anamosa Community School District by encouraging excellence in Music Arts through Leadership, Collaboration, Financial Support, and Technical Assistance.
We hope our help enables students the opportunity to participate and expand their talents and appreciation for music. This ongoing enhancement is accomplished throughout the year in many ways. We provide financial support generated primarily from football concession stand sales. This year we would like to extend our thanks to Blake and Renee Taylor for stepping up to let us benefit from the use of their food trailer at our football concessions this fall, since the flood took our concession stands.
Some other funds come from student direct sale fundraisers- including fresh evergreen wreath sale late fall, a Holiday Home tour this December, and the annual Sounds and Sweets concert in March. Boosters also provide assistance to directors, such as chaperoning and providing food and other needed items during out of town competitions, mending marching band uniforms and costumes, and volunteering for other various needs throughout the year.
In the past years, our funds have purchased choir robes, show choir costumes/ music/ choreography, color guard items, and marching band uniforms and marching drill expenses. We have also purchased many new instruments and donated them to the school for students to use.
This year we are focusing much of our efforts on raising funds for new Marching Band Uniforms. The ones currently in use are 11 years old, and showing considerable wear and tear.
Please share your time and talents to help out our Music Booster group.
With parent and volunteer participation, we’ll have another productive year, and help the music students have a top notch music education experience.
If you have any questions or would like to help in any way please contact Music Booster President, Kris Kilburg at 319-462-5594.
