Chap Club Newsletter
Dear Chap Fans –
As we close out the 2025-2026 school year, we want to extend our thanks and gratitude to everyone involved in supporting the Westlake Chap Club.
The Chap Club was able to provide essential resources that directly benefited our student-athletes and programs for all our UIL sports. From funding team travel, new equipment and uniforms, training/support for our coaches, to enhancing training facilities and much more!
