Description

Presented by the Wheaton North Jazz Bands and the Falcon Band Parent Organization, The Swing of Things will be held on Saturday, March 16th at Wheaton North High School in Wheaton, IL. Increasing in attendance each year, this popular dance shows off our student musicians in a fun, family environment. Last year, over 400 parents, students, teachers and community members attended the event which includes a silent auction, a raffle and three hours of non-stop swing music performed by the jazz bands and ensembles of the Wheaton North High School and Middle Schools. This annual event is the primary fundraiser of the Wheaton North band program.

We are seeking donations for our silent online auction and raffle. The online auction is open to anyone and is promoted heavily in the broader Wheaton community. To show our appreciation for your support, we would be happy to provide a listing in our digital program, signage at the event, promotion by an emcee to the 400+ attendance at the event and additional social media presence to the Wheaton community.
