Dress and Decorum

DRESS AND DECORUM FOR MEMORIAL WEEKEND

Below are the dress requirements for attending Memorial Weekend in Emmittsburg.

• Dress for the Memorial on Sunday is Class “A” Full Dress/Tunic & Plaid; if you do not have this, wear your Class "B" long sleeve and tie or other appropriate dress 
• Dress for the Candlelight Vigil on Saturday evening is Class “B”.  Long sleeve with ties or short sleeve button-up uniform shirts, whatever your band wears as a Class “B” uniform and no feather bonnets.
• All members need to look presentable to the families as this is a memorial.  We are limiting “flair” items on uniforms.  Everyone should have no more than (1) Kilt pin and that should do it.  No additional pins that are not direct band-uniform issued.  This gives us a clean, dignified, UNIFORM look that we are after.
• If it looks like rainy weather, please have rain gear available.  The inclement weather plan is we will perform rain or shine with some severe weather on-site contingencies.
