Color Guard Uniforms
What Makes a Uniform?
Color Guard is assigned practice flags, a custom uniform, and show flags that compliment the theme of the show for competition season. Beyond the assigned pieces, guard members will be responsible for purchasing a summer uniform, fall warm-ups, color guard shoes, a flag bag, guard tape, and any coordinating hair and makeup accessories.
Uniform & Flag Care
DO NOT MACHINE WASH YOUR GUARD UNIFORM!!!
It is a custom piece of performance wear, often with embellishments that require delicate care.

Show flags are kept in the Guard storage area. They should be stacked neatly to preserve the flag's shape and appearance.
