August 15 Car Wash Benefits Wheaton Warrenville South Marching Band

On Saturday, August 15 members of the Wheaton Warrenville South High School band program will take a break from marching and practicing to participate in the band’s “Spiffy in a Jiffy” car wash fundraiser. From 9 am until 3 pm, members of the community are invited to stop by the Compass Church (formerly Wheaton Evangelical Free Church) at 520 E. Roosevelt Road in Wheaton  get their cars cleaned while supporting the Tiger Marching Band program.

Instrumentalists in the woodwind, brass, and percussion sections as well as color guard members will wash and dry cars. A $5 donation is suggested. Baked goods will also be offered for sale. All proceeds will benefit the band program.

Under the direction of Victor Scimeca, the Class A band performs at all home football games and will compete in five field competitions this fall.
