SUPPORT THE WAUKEGAN BAND!
Since 1936, the Waukegan Band has provided the community with high quality music each summer. Weekly concerts are held at the Stiner Pavilion on the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan and our concertgoers enjoy free admission and free parking. It is only the generosity of foundations, corporations, and individuals that sustain us and help us offset various costs that include purchasing music, performance licensing, advertising, printing, staffing for band duties, and purchasing and repairing instruments and equipment.
If you enjoy the music of the Waukegan Band, please consider supporting us in one or more of the following mediums:

The financial generosity of individuals like you allows us to share outstanding musical experiences with concertgoers, local students, and countless community members.
Do you have a friend, a parent, a child, a neighbor, a teacher, a spouse or relative who was "instrumental" in your life? We'll share your memorial to their contribution. If you choose to dedicate your donation to a family member or to honor a friend, please advise us of memorializing by contacting us at [email protected] and make a note in the memo of your online or check donation. Thank you for your kind support!
Does your employer offer a "Matching Gift" or "Volunteer Grant" program? A majority of the "Fortune 500" companies and community leaders do. Check with your employer's Human Resource Department.
