The group sent out the following letter:
This year our 7th Annual MusicFest is Friday April 6, 2018 and we hope you’ll join us again to celebrate music as a performer, a volunteer, or a part of the audience – one, both, or all three! To those of you who have already signed up, thank you! A flyer is attached to share with friends and family.
If you would like to perform, please contact us by Thursday, March 29.

If you would like to volunteer, just email here and we will be in touch.
Your participation is what has made MusicFest, our major fundraiser of the year, such a special – and successful – event. We have awarded over $23,000 in grants to support staffing, over $5,000 for teacher initiatives, and brought in over $16,000 from outside sources for the Watertown Public Schools.
We hope to see you again this year!
– Chris Lowry, on behalf of Friends of Watertown Music
