Important Message!!

It's all about the attitude!

So you think you know it all? So you think you're the royalty compared to everyone around you? So you think that you're the best at everything? Well with that kind of attitude, no one's going to want to be around you.

You know who they are. People who think that they are the best guardie that ever lived. People who constantly act superior, acts stuck up to others.

This kind of attitude does NOT go well with a good guard.

Think about what marching band/colorguard/winterguard is. It's a COMBINED EFFORT!!! Lots of people thrown together all striving for one thing! There is absolutely no room for egotism and star-treatment. It will not benefit the band/guard as a whole. You are NOT God's gift to the ensemble! You might think that you are, but all you're doing is hurting yourself, your image to others, and your group. There is no room for acting like you're the best. Even if you are the best equipment handler, you are DEFINITELY NOT the best person socially.
