Seeking Sponsors

Crossroads Blues Society is an all-volunteer 501c3 non-profit organization incorporated in the State of Illinois that works to conduct Blues in the Schools programs for area schools.  Sponsorship donations for the festival are tax deductible and are used to cover the many costs of running a music festival.  Costs include band fees, lodging for non-local bands, a stage, sound and lights, electrical work, insurance, licenses and an assortment of other items.  It takes a lot of effort to run an event of this magnitude.  We have a dedicated group of volunteers to help make the day a success, but need outside help for funding. 

  
Sponsorships are available at several levels: 

• Primary Festival Sponsor: $5000.  Once sponsor may become the primary sponsor and be named in the festival title.  For example, if ABC Company were to sponsor at this level, we would name the festival the “ABC Field of Blues Festival.”  We would incorporate your logo into the festival logo when created, be featured on the tee shirt front and all places the logo is displayed, name on banner on stage, recognition in program and other advertising plus provide you with 100 free tickets. 

• Platinum: $1000 and up.  Benefits include larger logo on tee shirt back, name on banner on stage, recognition in program and other advertising plus 25 free tickets. 

• Gold: $500 to $999.  Benefits include smaller logo on tee shirt, name on banner on stage, recognition in program and other advertising plus 10 free tickets. 

• Silver: $200 to $499. Benefits include name on banner on stage, larger name on tee shirt, recognition in program and other advertising plus 4 free tickets.
