Color guard ideas from you?

dancingkd

okay, so I am Captain at my school, and i was wondering what your guard does to kick off a new season. like band camp survival kits, or blog sites, maybe things like tshirts you make, what traditions does your guard have?

Answer
I did junior guard the past three years, and joined the high school one this year. here are a few ideas:

rookie camp ( a camp for all the freshman to come to and learn the stuff ) this is lead by the captains, co captain, and the color guard instructor

Pre camp( gets everyone ready for band camp, we hd this 9 hrs a day for a week )

Band camp ( we had this 14 hrs a day for 8 days )

For the tee shirts, i would suggest tank tops, because when u are outside practicing in the hot sun, swetting, they are alot more cooler then t shirt. our guard held a contest and ppl sudmitted shirt ideas. you could vote on this.

yall could hold an activity as like an end of band camp party thing. go skating, sleep over, pizza, mall, watever!

gl this season! :O)

Halloween Costume ideas for a group of 8 girls?

Mena

I'm looking for new, creative ideas for a group of 8 women (27 yrs old) to be for Halloween this year? Each year we host a party and we have a costume theme for each of us. We have already been different versions of Madonnas, Beauty Queens and last year we were the cast from Clue. Any new ideas will be great!!!

Answer
How about scream queens? You could all be Crystal Lake Camp counselors, there's sure to be someone dressed as Jason to complete the set. Some of you could even be a bit hacked up, as Jason has already started his rampage.

There is a discussion of this and some twists to the Friday the 13th theme on the Group Costumes Ideas blog, http://groupcostumeideas.net

Co-Ed teen party ideas?

JerseyGirl

I need ideas for a good co-Ed 14 year old teen party?(:

I'd like to have a guy and girl party, because a lot of my close friends are guys and girls.. But I'm not sure if my parents would be comfortable with it. I wanted a big camping party, but the idea of sleeping around guys is gonna bother my parents. Any ideas? I want a party that will be remembered for a reeeeeaaaaaalllllyyyyy long time.

Any parent approved ideas maybe?
Thanks!

Answer
-Rock climbing (There might be a gym nearby)
-Lazer Tag
-Could do like a fun boys versus girls scavenger hunt downtown if you live in a decent size city. My cross country team does this. The grades all dress up and then you get a list of things. Like we had to take a picture with some workers at 5 guys and then had to have a random person write us a love letter and we had to find a chalk drawing the seniors hid. Or you could do one with clues. It was really fun
-Boating. This could be fun, you guys could boat around. If you have a lake or river. Then you could go to a shore, sand bar, island and have a campfire.
-Paintball
- I don't know if you have something like this but where I live there is this campground nearby but they have a man made pond with tons of blow up slides and blogs and log rolls and stuff and that is super fun! It's called Smokey Hollow, but it is in Wisconsin
-Go Karting

You could do any combo of these, like the scavenger hunt and then a campfire. You could still have it coed if you have a parent and have separate boys and girls tents, or the boys just go home at like midnight. You could make smores and play party games like "head". You have a category like movie character and someone will write something like Harry Potter on a piece of tape and put it on the forehead of the person next to them, then everyone has to ask yes no questions until they get it. Or there is that one electronic game but I'm blanking on the name and it has a word and you pass it around if you get your team to say it and you don't want the buzzer to go off on you. Then you guys could always play like glow in the dark capture the flag. Another game people at my school play is called Slip. There is a location like a park and the runners have to get there and then 5 minutes later the chasers set out on bikes or in cars and they have to tag the people before they get to the park. It's so fun, we end up running through backyards and stuff.

I'm sure you'll find something fun. If you live by th ocean you could have a bonfire and do night surfing. Hope you have fun! Happy Birthday!

fancy dress party, any ideas?

Q. okay so the theme is 'TV and film characters'

I don't really want to spend much money, so something I can create at home would be great.

Oh and I am white (quite pale), with very dark brown hair which is quite long (a couple of inches below my chest) , so somebody for example with short bleach blonde hair wouldn't be ideal. I was thinking maybe rachel from glee, but not too sure.

thank you :) x

Should McCain rent a train and speak to the nation off the back of the club car?

camping party ideas blog image

Pragmatism

He's got to get his message out somehow, and the media has all but ignored him. Too busy hanging out with their new savior...

What else could McCain do to get the word out?

Please, refrain from answers that ONLY promote candidates. Address my question if you would be so kind.

Answer
McCain really needs to concretely define himself. Yes, he's a conservative but he's trying to play to all sides of the party at this point and he needs to set in stone where he stands so that voters can more readily identify with him. He also needs a catch phrase that works. Obama has cornered the market on "Change", "Hope", and "Yes, We Can!"; McCain's "Straight Talk Express" is not a catch phrase that excites the base...it's just a description of his campaign. Younger voters, especially, would pick up on the whole catch phrase notion if McCain had a really good one. Speaking of the youth vote, it's essential that McCain have a good web campaign. Look at what Obama has been able to accomplish online and even Ron Paul, for that matter. McCain should take a page from Mike Huckabee's notebook on the matter: Have funny, user-created videos on his site or blog (encourages participation); reach out to bloggers via conference calls (which makes him appear more accessible to voters); have a user-friendly website (steers surfers to interact within the site); have group meets of like-minded voters (to brainstorm and bring in more votes...everyone likes to feel wanted and part of something bigger). Some of these ideas come from a nonprofit marketing site. Surely, there are many other grass root efforts that can be put in motion to help further his message. And, don't rule out yard signs. I have to say, I've yet to see ONE McCain bumper sticker or yard sign or any type of ad for him in my area. I do, however, see Ron Paul signs and stickers and have seen a couple of Obama's. Seems that someone in McCain's camp should be organizing these things on a local level...I'm just not seeing it, and therein lies part of the problem (lack of organization), along with the obvious media bias.
