Music Boosters​

The Caravel Music Boosters is one of the driving forces that helps the music program touch every student’s life from preschool to high school. We help facilitate activities from the start of the year with band camp to the end of the year with the Fine Arts Festival. Local activities, competitions, and theatrical shows allow the community to see Caravel music students at their finest, whether it is at a football game, Caroling for Cans, marching in parades, UD Band Day, Blue/Gold Games, on stage during a play or musical, or band and choral competitions. 

Volunteers needed!

Caravel Music Boosters would like to welcome you to the 2018-19 music year. We invite you to join the Music Boosters and sign up to volunteer to help make this the best year yet. There are many musical activities for the students to join, and we look forward to their participation. The Music Boosters help to finance and/or organize musical festivals and competitions, camps for instruction, memberships to musical organizations (such as Tri-M), and the fall/spring Fine Arts Festivals and trips. All of this is possible with the help of our entire community through fundraising. We have been fortunate to have a wonderful group of volunteers help us over the years. Please help us continue this tradition and sign up to help us enrich our children’s lives with music.
