Overview
Mission
Oklahoma's only independent WGI World Class percussion ensemble. Every season we audition a new ensemble, design a new show, and put it on the floor -- because the hard work is worth it.
What it reported doing in 2024
The organization has operated successfully since 2011, providing education in the pageantry arts. The organization has grown the ensemble from an entry level competition group, to a world class ensemble. The organization has been wgi championship finalists 5 times, and wgi regional finalists almost every year since 2011. The over 40 members, ages 16-22, are a diverse group of people. The organization is proud to offer an experience that benefits and includes so many different people from the region. 50% of members were new this season, 29% were 1-year vets and 21% have marched 2 or more years with the ensemble. 59% of members are in college, 29% of our members are in high school and 12% are not enrolled in school and/or have already entered the work force. Members come from 4 different states and represent 9 different universities, and 23 different high schools. The collegiate members are preparing for a wide variety of careers including music, biology/pre-med, civil engineering, computer information systems, computer science, english, business, industrial engineering, mechanical engineering, music composition, percussion performance, music education, and sound engineering. The organization traveled and competed in wgi percussion world championships, as well as wgi percussion regional competitions in Texas and Nebraska, and local competitions in Oklahoma and Arkansas in the 2024 season.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Membership-supported. 80% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
