We also know that some potential members have not played in years. Have no fear, you will get your lips and hands back with a little rehearsal. You’ll be surprised how much you retained over the years. 

Membership is open in all sections. Rehearsals are one Sunday a month with 2 optional music rehearsals on two Wednesday nights a month.  

The corps will retain some of our 2011 music and add an additional 2 musical numbers. There will be plenty of rehearsal time and sectional work to get new members caught up and older members more comfortable with what we know. We understand that not everyone will be able to learn everything, we just tell everyone to know what NOT to play when we perform.

We do understand that life and family do come first and that members will have to miss rehearsals and performances. However, we ask that you make every effort to attend whenever you can.

 We ask these few things of our members.

·      Respect the people you are marching with no matter what their age or background.

·      Respect the people teaching you.

·      Respect the equipment you are using.

·      Respect the facility we use.

·      Mostly enjoy your time here.  

There is NO Dues to march. Members will be asked to pay a $25 uniform fee! (both summer & military uniforms are provided). Member must buy their own black tux or dress pants and black shoes.  

Members are also required to sell 3 books (15 tickets) for our golf ball drop.
