WHO IS THE OBPA
We are the Oakville Band Parents Association, a non-for-profit booster club for Oakville Tiger Bands. Our mission is to help enhance our children's music education experience through financial support and volunteering time and talent. Our students are fortunate to receive a well-rounded music education encompassing marching competitions in the fall and concerts and exhibitions in the winter season. We host several fundraisers throughout the year, two of which are the Fall and Spring Craft Fairs. If you would like to help us in our mission, please consider making a donation. Your OBPA room monitor will be happy to assist you.
