West High School Student-Athletes, Parents, Teachers, Staff, and Alumni,

Madison West Athletic Booster Association (MWABA) is a parent-run booster organization supporting West High School athletic teams through the purchase of uniforms, equipment, facility improvements, and concussion testing.  Memberships and a variety of fundraising events provide the resources to make this possible.

Please support MWABA at these upcoming fundraisers!  

Wednesday, February 11, 4pm-8pm
Panera Bread (University Avenue in Madison) see attached flyer print and take to Panera on 2/11/15
Will donate up to 20% of sales for anyone who presents the attached flyer (paper or electronic copy) when placing their order. Please consider bringing your family or meeting for dinner with teammates, classmates, neighbors and friends. Show your support for West athletics by wearing your favorite West High School shirt.

Sunday, March 8, 11am-6pm
Title Nine, a women's activewear store at Hilldale
Will donate 9% of sales to MWABA.  Just mention West HS Athletics or MWABA when checking out.  Are you or your daughter in need of new workout clothes, a new sports bra, or some fun new clothes? Or eager to get a early start on some shopping for spring and summer?  If so, please consider shopping at Title Nine on Sunday, March 8!

Athletic programs at West High School depend upon the financial support of MWABA due to the budget constraints that currently exist in the Madison Metropolitan School District.  Please consider supporting MWABA and Madison West athletics by participating in one of these fundraisers.
