We need your help, and we will pay you for it!

We are excited to announce fundraising opportunities at OneOk Field with the help of Drillers Baseball and Tulsa FC Soccer, including a full-state of upcoming events . Union Bands staffs one of the concession stands for every game this summer. This is a huge opportunity for you to earn money for your student’s Charms account, and it’s a big responsibility for our organization.

There are 14 games in May and 16 games in June, so the earning potential is tremendous. If, for example, a Parent and their Student worked every game, they would earn $2,700 for their Charms account. Additionally, cash tips are divided at the end of the event, and you can also make extra money by walking the outfield and cleaning up after Fireworks on the nights that OneOk launches a post-event show.

How to get started:

Your student needs:

a volunteer food handler’s permit, which is free and obtainable online (click here).
for students under 18, a minors release form is required (click here)

Parents need:

the food handler’s permit, available online for free (click here)
to apply for an Oklahoma ABLE Liquor license (application fee of $30).
- the application process takes minutes, and you will make this money back the first night you work.

Our partnership with Drillers Baseball and Tulsa FC Soccer is one of the most lucrative fundraising opportunities that Union Bands gas, so it’s important that we continue to provide a reliable workforce and keep our relationship with OneOk Field healthy for the future.

You will be working alongside other Union Band parents & students and spending time with your student while they earn the funds to pay for competitive marching band fees and the other expenses of the amazing trips our students get to participate in.

Come out and try it, and you’ll see that it’s a simple and fun way to cover your band fees while getting to know your fellow Union Bands people.

In more ways than one, it feels like we are in the homestretch! As we head into the final weeks of school, it is natural to reflect on the challenges and successes your child has encountered this year. Granted, there may have been more challenges than successes, but both provide for important learning lessons. You may be asking yourself whether they should continue their music study next year. You child may have even expressed a desire to “try something new” — sometimes, as parents, we are tempted to give in.

Before making a final decision, consider this…

Over the years, we have talked to many adults who played an instrument as a child, and more often than not, they say that they wish that their parents had not allowed them to quit. Looking back, they see that they missed out on an opportunity to belong to a group, develop a talent, express themselves creatively, develop grit, and so much more!

Even in the midst of a pandemic, your child has been a part of something wonderful this year. And the good news is that it doesn’t stop here! Dedication and hard work breed passionate young people — wonderful young men and women who go on to do great things in life because they were part of something bigger than themselves. They are now one year closer to speaking this new language… one year closer to making beautiful sounds… one year closer to self-expression… one year closer to new friends and experiences. They are ONE YEAR CLOSER!

It may not be easy to see right now, but we promise you: the best is yet to come!

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us if we can be of assistance.

Sincerely,

Your Union Bands Faculty
