Shooting Stars Sponsorship
By becoming a sponsor, you'll not only help provide a platform for students to shine, but you'll also showcase your brand to a vibrant, engaged community of students, families, and local supporters. With sponsorship packages designed to fit a variety of levels, your involvement will ensure that our students receive the recognition and support they deserve.
We’ve designed a range of sponsorship levels that will provide you with meaningful visibility and an opportunity to make a lasting impact on our students’ journeys. Whether you're looking to be our Showstopper Sponsor or an Applause Sponsor, your contribution will make a world of difference.
​
We look forward to having you join us in celebrating the stars of tomorrow. Thank you for your support, and we can’t wait to see you at the show!
Where and When: This year’s event will take place at The Appalachian Theatre of the High Country on Friday, May 2, 2025.
Your impact: Sponsorship of WEF’s Shooting Stars event provides funding for classroom grants. All Watauga County teachers are eligible to apply for grants to fund projects that will directly benefit students through innovative and creating teaching methods.

The benefit to you: Sponsors have the opportunity to introduce their company to a crowd of over 600 individuals.
