Sycamore Music Boosters is a non-profit organization run completely by volunteers. Our mission is to enrich the music education of all music students from Kindergarten through 12th grade. We have wonderful people volunteering their time and talents for your student(s) and this organization, but we always need more help! We have a very active Music Boosters group, and in the last 5 years we have purchased band uniforms, a grand piano, choral risers, a band trailer, numerous instruments, and provided educational opportunities and food for special trips. We also provide music camp scholarships each year in addition to senior and continuing college scholarships.
