Tuesday August 4th Update
Hello! A few important things to note:
You will be fitted for your guard uniform starting tonight. This is what you will be wearing on Friday for pictures.
For pictures you will also need black split-sole shoes. They are sold as either jazz shoes or hip-hop shoes at most dance stores. The best places to go to get them is either Stage Center in Akron or The Dancer in You in Fairlawn. Both stores will know exactly what you need and will be able to fit you. Here are some pictures to give you an idea of what you are looking for:

Monday July 13th Update
Hello CG! Just a quick update and a few reminders:
We will have rehearsal tomorrow on Google Meet (see the band calendar for information)
If you are not able to attend a rehearsal, a parent/guardian needs to email wadsworthcolorguard@gmail.com. If you missed a rehearsal on Tuesday or Thursday last week, please make sure you have a parent/guardian email us. We were missing several students on Thursday's Google Meet and we do not have emails regarding those absences. Telling another member or captain does not excuse an absence.
We will also start our rehearsals on Thursday's with Google Meets. Please check the band calendar for the information to log on to them.
Seven challenge videos have been posted! Have fun!
Congratulations to all in the 2020-2021 Color Guard!
We will let you know when in-person rehearsals will start. The rehearsal information will be posted in the calendar. We will have to adhere to proper safety guidelines. Those guidelines will be posted when they are approved by the administration and the Medina County Health Department.
For now we will begin by posting videos for you to start learning work. These will be posted under the videos tab. Please continue to work on basics also. Under the videos, there is a subpage with our basics videos (the same ones from auditions). Please make sure that you are working on the details that we give in the videos when practicing your basics. Your technique on basics will help when you are learning routines.
Until further notice, our rehearsal schedule is as follows:
Tuesdays July 14- 6-8 pm (via Google Meet)
Thursdays starting July 16 - 6-8 pm (Google Meet at 6 pm then Independent practice time)
Check the two red links below often as information will be posted on the band website by Mrs. Hire and the band calendar will include dates for CG and Band (both of which you'll need)
