Welcome to the Tiger Regiment Site
The Tiger Regiment, under the direction of Richard King, includes the Band (marching, wind, symphonic), Jazz Bands (I and II), Colorguard and Drumline. In the fall semester, the Tiger Regiment can be found marching outdoors doing field shows and parades. During the spring season, the Regiment forms Winterguard, Drumline Jazz and various concert band groups. Each requires additional auditions and attends competitive events throughout the season.
At this site, you will find updates and information on all the before mentioned groups because we are all part of the GREAT TIGER REGIMENT.
The calendar link in the left navigation column of each page contains the latest information regarding the upcoming season. We'd just like to highlight the most important ones below:
Important Events
WELCOME TO THE 2010 - 2011 SEASON!
Fair Share Pledge
See the attached documents regarding the "Fair Share Pledge." The first document explains what your fair share pledge is, why we need it, what it is used for and how to send it in. The second document contains the coupons you can use to send in your monthly pledge payments. (Colorguard has a separate payment schedule. See Lisa Moyer, VP - Colorguard, if you need another copy of that schedule.)
United Scrip
The scrip program is running through the summer. See the attached "Summer Scrip Program" document for details. An updated order form can be found in the VIP Boosters section under Fundraising. Starting August 31, all orders are due Monday by 2pm (put order form and payment in the black mailbox in the band office). Mary Botts is in charge of the program and will be processing orders weekly during Marching Season. Her contact information is on the order form. Allow 8-10 days for delivery and make your payment to "VIP". Proceeds from United Scrip Sales (less administrative fee) go toward individual accounts. Don't forget to ask friends, family and co-workers to get involved to help sponsor band and colorguard students! And now families may place their order on-line anytime during the week. Payment is still due on Monday by 2pm. Please see the United Scrips Purchase Program area in the Fundraiser section for instructions.
Credit Cards
We accept both MasterCard and Visa credit cards for use in paying band pledges. There are no separate fees or surcharges, so it is a great way to pay your band pledge. Check out the bottom of your monthly pledge statement for how to use this option.
