The organisers would like to thank the many sponsors of different catagories. Without them there would have been no trophies or no prizes.
Music Ground is home to over 3000 quality guitars and also sell many accessories.

 
 
The organisers would also like to thank THE MILLENNIUM AWARDS COMMISION and MORLEY TOWN COUNCIL. Without sponsorship from these parties this event would not have happened. The many hundreds of young people who attended throughout the weekend are all examples of what can be achieved with a lot of hard work and a bit of faith from organisations like yours... Many Thanks to you all.
 
We would also like to thank Councillor Judith Elliott the Mayor of Morley for all her hard work all over the weekend. You showed attributes that all the people involved both young and older could relate too. We have recieved many comments on how well you interacted with the people and how proud you made us feel to be a part of Morley. Thank You Madame Mayor.
