SPONSORSHIPS

Dear Millwood Band Supporters and Sponsors,

The Millwood Band, comprised of Millwood Middle School and Millwood High School students, currently participates in the 2023-2024 school year activities, such as local, national, and international competitions. These diligent musicians are now laying the groundwork for an exciting and rewarding year of performances. We have many events scheduled and look forward to performing for you in Falcon half-time shows, concerts, and distinguished band competitions at concerts throughout Oklahoma, Texas, Mississippi, and recently, The Bahamas at the 5th Quarter Battle of the Bands.

Millwood’s Marching Band has enjoyed extraordinary success over several seasons, improving tremendously yearly. Our young men and women have achieved much over the years, including performing at the Cowboys of Color Rodeo, Oklahoma Motorcycle Association Annual Bike Show, Cleats For Kids Annual Fundraiser, Mid-West City Armed Forces Parade, Martin Luther King Battle of the Bands, OKC GOVT Rally, and the One Mile March to the Polls. The Millwood Band continues to be one of the premier bands in the area, providing students with the knowledge and performance experiences needed to be successful young musicians.As you may imagine, developing and presenting a winning and successful performance is a very challenging process. Unfortunately, it is a very expensive undertaking as well. As is the case with many school-related organizations, our funds rely heavily on the generous donations of our sponsors. As our bands continue to grow and improve, the financial demands increase. Additional funds are needed for transportation, staffing, design, equipment, music, and all of the operational aspects of the organization.

Students are asked to be involved in many fundraising activities throughout the year; however, many of these fundraisers give the group 50% or less of the profits. One of the most effective ways for our organization to raise funds is through sponsorships. Sponsoring the band ensures that 100% of what you give goes directly and immediately toward fulfilling the financial needs of our program. Your donation will be tax-deductible, and you will help ensure every student has an incredible experience within the Millwood Band. Any contribution, no matter how large or small, is greatly appreciated. We invite you to review the enclosed sponsorship form and consider supporting our effort to keep the Millwood High School Band a vibrant part of community life in Oklahoma City. Several sponsorship levels are available, and all donations are tax-deductible.

On behalf of the members of the Millwood Band, thank you in advance for your generous support. We greatly appreciate our returning sponsors and welcome our new sponsors to the Millwood Band Family. We look forward to entertaining you. Don’t forget to look for your name or company name on our sponsor board as you enter the main gate of the football stadium. We appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you soon. Best Regards,

Davaro Wilson, Band Director

Menes Ray, Assistant Band Director
