More specific details will be coming shortly as housing sites, rehearsal spaces, and times are being finalized. The Denver camp will be a Friday through Sunday camp. The Texas camp will be a Saturday through Sunday camp. The Indianapolis camp will be a one day camp on Saturday, May 2nd. Individuals only have to attend 1 camp for their final audition.

This final audition is REQUIRED to be a part of the Troopers color guard. If for ANY reason you cannot make it to one of these camps, you MUST email Jeffrey Cash, color guard caption head, via email ASAP -- your.jeffrey@gmail.com. Alternative arrangements may be discussed at that time.

Everyone is welcome to audition, whether this is your first camp this season or your second. Just make sure you come prepared to work hard!

THE AUDITION PROCESS
A routine does not need to be prepared for your audition. Your skills will be evaluated while learning the technique program throughout the camp. Your training will involve learning technique in both movement and equipment and will be supplemented with choreography so that you may demonstrate how well you perform those skills combined. It is important that ALL members have a strong base of movement and flag technique. If you spin flag only, that is ok, although you may be asked to spin a weapon just so the staff can get an idea of your range of skills. If you spin rifle or sabre, you will be asked to audition on those.

Flags will be provided for everyone to spin. We spin 6 ft. flag poles with thirds.

Rifles and sabres will be provided as well, although you may bring your own if you would like. If your weapons do not match the ones we spin, you may be asked to spin with ours. We spin 38" King rifles and 39" King sabres.

Please remember to bring:
- spinning gloves
- tennis shoes
- form fitting clothes/dancewear (we need to be able to see your body, especially your feet/ankles -- no baggy clothes)
- a POSITIVE ATTITUDE!!!

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Jeffrey Cash.
