The entity acts as a financial conduit for travel expenses, purchases of musical instruments, music supplies, guest instructors and event registration fees above the local school district's budget. The organization coordinates fund raising events, solicits community volunteers and assists in the communication and marketing in support of public performances and events. The organization also provides several scholarships on a competitive basis for students who are either interested in continuing their involvement in the performing arts or have strongly been engaged in the performing arts during their secondary education. High school and middle school concert and jazz bands were able to participate in a full schedule of competitions and performances with the Performing Arts Boosters covering all entry fees and supporting travel expenses at 1/2 cost. Activities included the Clark College Jazz Festival where the high school jazz band placed first in their division, the Bellevue Jazz Festival, Vancouver BC Music Festival, Music in the Parks, and playing for the Leavenworth business and tourist community. Several additional fund raising activities have been introduced (parking for a major local music event and coffee sales) and depleted fund balances from 2022/2023 have been replaced. Adequate balances are now on hand to support a major event, purchase new instruments and potentially help support music education that has been reduced for the 2024/2025 school year. More than 100 students are directly impacted by the efforts of the South Whidbey Schools Performing Arts Boosters and the South Whidbey Island community greatly benefits through the musical performances from the talented youth. Two $500 scholarships were awarded for the 2023/2024 school year. 0 23509 23509 Robert Mellish Treasurer 2 0 0 0 Kristy Macarro President 2 0 0 0 Patty Stewart Secretary 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Robert Mellish 2591 Hillis Dr Langley WA 98260 3609146264 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 19505 246 627 716 18060 39154 58209 -36 127 3010 34315 95625 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 77714 210 754 3726 52375 134779 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 134779 16 22 20 18 17 93 0 0 0 0 0 0 16 22 20 18 17 93 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 77730 232 774 3744 52392 134872 0.99931 0.99942 0.00069 0.00058 X Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 10 Student Scholarships $1,000 Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Administrative Expense $10, Bank Service Charges $236, Insurance $1035, Office Supplies $327, Sales Promotion Expense $139, Event Registration $3,762, Other Program Expense (Student Recognition) $ 737, Equipment $107, Apparel $457, Recording $800, Travel Accommodations $7,699, Bus Transport $6,183, Travel Entertainment $2,781, Food $440
