Can Shack
The public can donate cans/bottles at our shack in the Fareway parking lot at 200 SE Laurel St in Waukee. We take responsibility for sorting the cans and turning them in for redemption. Money from redemption is split between the band parent organization and the students sorting cans.
Restaurant Events
Local restaurants partner with school groups to raise funds by hosting special dining events. A portion of the proceeds from a given night’s sales are donated to the Waukee Band Parents Organization to fund various activities related to the band program.
Our next events will be:
Wed, Feb 5, 2025 at Z'Mariks Noodle Cafe | 12655 University Ave in Clive. More details coming closer to the event!
Mon, Apr 14, 2025 at Home Sweet Cone | 1188 SE University Ave in Waukee. Please mention you’re supporting Waukee bands at the register. Event hours will be announced closer to the event!
Quilt Raffle
Every year, we have a custom quilt made with the previous 3 years’ show shirts to raffle off. A truly unique and one-of-a-kind keepsake! This year’s quilt is in progress! The final quilt will have a border added and is expected to be approximately 65” x 65”.
For every ticket purchased, your name will be entered into the drawing held at the WHS concert on February 10, 2025. You need not be present to win, but the quilt must be picked up in Waukee.
Get your entries in advance here! Website credit card sales will end at 10:00 am on Monday, February 10 but tickets will also be available before the concert.
Mattress Sale
One of the most unique fundraisers around! We partner with CFS to transform Waukee High School Commons into a mattress showroom for a one day sale. CFS carries name brand mattresses plus accessories like adjustable bases, sheets, pillows, and more. Delivery and financing are available so you can sleep better and support the band! Details will be announced this winter.
Save the date: March 1, 2025!
