We will all do
hair/make-up together after rehearsal. If you need help with
make-up go shopping with another guard girl who can help you!
Realize that this is just performance make-up and does not have to be
expensive.
If you have not purchased red earrings from Sam, please do so before
the game! They are $3.00 per pair. If you are worried that
you will forget them, bring a plastic Ziploc bag with your name on it
and your earrings in them to Sam and she can keep them for you until
you need to wear them. ABSOLUTELY NO JEWELRY THAT IS VISIBLE MAY
BE WORN WHEN IN UNIFORM OTHER THAN THE RED EARRINGS. If you have
a facial piercing or another ear piercing you may wear clear
studs. No bracelets, necklaces or rings, please! Nail
polish must also be removed from your fingernails before any
performance.
Sam will provide silver glitter, red bows and pom poms (for dancing in
the stands).
By the first competition (Saturday, September 24) Color Guard members
must have red shorts for rehearsal and to wear after the
performance. During morning rehearsal you will wear your black
"Z" shirt along with your red shorts. For the color weather you
will want to have black yoga pants/jazz pants or sweatpants for these
times.
Make sure you are practicing - especially Pre-Game - this
weekend! Stretch before and smile during! If you are
confused or need help with any choreography, don't hesitate to contact
a friend from guard or any of our leadership team - Paige, Jena or Kia!
If any parents or guard members have questions, feel free to email Sam!
