The Cle Elum-Roslyn Music Boosters hosted another successful Jazz Café Annual Dinner & Auction on Friday, May 1, 2026, raising just over $10,000 to support music students and programs throughout the district.
Held at the UKC Senior Center, the annual fundraiser brought together community members, supporters, families, and local organizations for an evening of music, entertainment, and fun. The evening featured swing dance lessons, a taco dinner, a silent auction, a 50/50 raffle, a prize wheel, and a dessert auction. Guests enjoyed performances by the Cle Elum-Roslyn High School Combo and Jazz Band, along with special guest performers from the Ellensburg Big Band.
This annual event plays a critical role in funding important opportunities for student musicians, including clinicians, competitions, scholarships, and additional program needs throughout the year.
The Cle Elum-Roslyn Music Boosters would also like to thank our community partners for helping make the evening a success. The Education Foundation for Cle Elum-Roslyn and the Suncadia Fund for Community Enhancement both served as Maestro-Level Sponsors, providing substantial support that helped offset venue expenses and strengthen the fundraiser’s overall impact.
The Jazz Café Annual Dinner & Auction has become one of the Music Boosters’ most important traditions, helping ensure local students continue to have access to meaningful music education experiences and performance opportunities.
