Form deadlines are in July. Read on for more information.
-
Friday, August 9: 2 to 7 p.m.
-
Saturday, August 10: 2 to 8 p.m.
All colorguard members are strongly encouraged to attend at least one of the scheduled spin days this summer. These days are a great opportunity to brush up on and improve your skills, get to know other members of the section and instructional staff, and for the staff to get to know you and your skills. This allows us to write work that fits your skill level. While we don't hold official auditions for the team, we will make some decisions about who might be featured on weapons or in other subgroupings.
Johnson Theater Stage (more information about where to meet will be sent out after registration). May go outside, weather-permitting.
Make sure you also complete the Participation Form by July 13
Come prepared:
- Parking on Friday should be in a visitor's lot on campus. Saturday can be in a faculty/staff lot.
- If you can't come to both days or can't stay the whole time, just let us know. Anything is better than nothing.
- Come dressed to move
- Wear appropriate athletic footwear
- Bring water
- Wear sunscreen and bring extra to reapply if needed
- Bring guard gloves if you already have a pair (if you order through us, they won't be in until band camp, but we may have some in stock)
- Bring any medical/orthopedic devices you may have (inhaler, support brace, wrap, etc.)
- Be ready to have fun and work hard!
If you are unable to attend either day, we may ask you to submit a video demonstrating some basic skills. If you don't have access to equipment, we can make some suggestions.
