2008 Marching Band Uniform

I have gone through a great deal of thought lately on how to dress the band this year. With this being my first year, I wanted the group to be casual and fun and without a great deal of effort.

Hats:
I had many different ideas on hats for this year (including my comment at rehearsal on June 2 to just find a mostly solid color baseball cap), but in hindsight they have all not been feasible. We have purchased white baseball caps for each member of the marching band and the band-aides to wear along with the rest of the uniform. I hope to have these available to hand out at rehearsal on June 9.

Shirt:
The shirt we will be wearing this year is the red “Band is the Word” marching band t-shirt. T-Shirts are $15/ea and can be ordered through the Lambda Room on dcdd.org. If you do not have access to the Lambda Room, please email your name and shirt-size to treasurer@dcdd.org. Please bring your $15 (check or cash – exact change suggested) to the next rehearsal to obtain your t-shirt.

Pants/Shorts:
We will be wearing light-tan pants or shorts – your pick based upon your existing wardrobe and preference. Please make sure they are light tan, not olive (green), slate (gray) or any other popular color variation.

Shoes:
There will be not color requirement for shoes this year. Please wear comfortable sneakers – with socks.
