FAQ
How do I wash a marching uniform?
You can wash the marching band uniforms – it’s always a good idea when they first get them and before they are turned in
Gentle cycle on cold with non-bleach mild detergent
Cool dry on gentle setting (low)
Or line dry, but it will take a while, so not the night before you need it
Note: hot weather uniform will be khaki shorts and band dry fit
How do they all look the same?
Marching Band is a team sport and it only works when all the pieces fit together – therefore, it’s important to look the same – as much as possible
Hair style requirements: if student hair is long, it must go in a sock bun for band or braids for guard
In cold weather, layer as much as you can underneath the uniform
In extremely cold weather, MPB or black coats may be worn in the stands
Please remind students to have extra items in their locker and/or in their drawstring bag:
Black socks, deodorant, gloves
