Merchandise Questions

Why can't I buy all the required items in one place?

We use different vendors for different items. The jug sleeves come from one vendor; the shoes, gloves, and duffle bags from another; and the clothes from a third vendor who sets up an online store for us.

When will my child receive the items we've ordered?

The jug sleeves will be passed out during summer band. Shoes, duffle bags, clothes (including parent show shirts), and guard gloves will be passed out the weekend before and/or early the week of the first football game (August 28th).

Do I need to buy all these things every year?

Ideally, no. After freshman year, you'll just need to buy items that your child has outgrown or that have worn out. The exception being when there are changes to the uniforms and color guard, depending on the shoes Mr. Jackson chooses for the next season.

Do I need to buy my child a show shirt?

No. Some items are included as part of your band fees. Show Shirts is one example. They change every year and are required for all students to wear during competions.
