Membership sponsor information List
Members, Print this list for information on previous CYRA sponsors that need to be contacted again

Please remember the association needs donations to be able to produce fabulous awards for its members Like what we were able to supply last year. Please do your part for the association and donate just a little of your time. Please make use of the sponsorship application & help sheet that prints off along with it. This is located at the top of the sponsorship page. It will give you idea's and places to go for previous sponsors. Make sure and check your list with the website so you don't hit up a sponsor that has just been added. If you have any questions on how you can help, please email or contact any of your board members &  they will assist you.

Here is an Awesome example of great member participation
; Last year (2005), member Cooper Belt and his mom Leslie, took an afternoon and hit the towns of Paola & Osawatomie, going into the business's, they explained about our association & let them know what events Cooper competed in. They ask these business's for donations to CYRA. GUESS WHAT!!???  In one outing, they brought $1,000.00 to the next meeting and gave it to CYRA!! WOW!

Now this year, the board has given the members helpful instructions located in the
Sponsorship Application 2007 , to go out and secure sponsorships for the association. Please put these to good use and help out.

Approved Qualification for 2006 Finals- Each member is required to collect $50.00. This $50.00 can come in the form of either a sponsor for the association, in fund raiser money (such as selling saddle raffle tickets), or a combination there of (sponsor+saddle raffle tickets sold) If you bring in a $50.00 sponsor for the association, that sponsor will be advertised on the website and in the association newsletter for 6 months from the date of payment, then again in the Finals program.

Members-this is all you Have to do as far as "fund raiser". This is quite a bit lower than with most associations. We as a board, hope this helps more families to be able to come and join in the fun.
 
PLEASE remember though,
the association needs donations to be able to produce fabulous awards for its members Like what we were able to supply last year. Please do your part for the association and donate just a little of your time. This year the board has supplied information on obtaining sponsorship money and what you can offer the business' for advertising for their donation. Please make use of the sponsorship application & help sheet that prints off along with it. This is located in the Sponsorship section of this webpage. It will give you idea's and places to go for previous sponsors. Make sure and check your list with the website so you don't hit up a sponsor that has just been added. If you have any questions on how you can help, please email or contact any of your board members &  they will assist you.
All money collected through sponsorship and/or fund raisers unless specially designated goes into the association account to pay for Finals and Year End Awards. So remember, the more money in sponsors you get, the more awards the association is able to give out. Members got GREAT awards this year!
