Cadet Color Guard Competition / Drill Team

Louisiana Wing will have a Color Guard Team at Regional Competition again this year but we have also been asked to try to field a Drill Team as well. 

Color Guard Competition is scheduled to be held February 15-17, 2013 and will be a competition between Unit Color Guards as has been the case in the past. Teams consist of 4 primary and one alternate member and all members must be Phase 1 or 2 cadets. Officers may not participate in the Color Guard Competition. 

The drill team will be handled differently. It requires 13 primary members with up to 4 alternates. The members can be of any grade and can be from any unit in the wing. We do not yet know how this will be done logistically; However, before we even think about logistics, we need to know who is interested. Do we have enough interest to even try? Please email me at lydia.c.pike@gmail.com if you are interested and encourage other cadets across the wing to do so as well. The team, if we are successful will travel to Arkansas for the SWR Competition. Date To Be Advised. 

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT COLOR GUARD COMPETITION:
The venue for the Color Guard Competition must change due to damage from Hurricane Issac. We will advise as soon as we have determined the new location.
