Dinkles are white marching shoes worn by all members except the Color Guard.  You can re-use suitable Dinkles from prior years. We sell 1 pair of white Dinkles for $36.

4.  Percussionist Equipment
Percussionist families pay for drumsticks for their students.
5.  Marching Band Necessity List
See the Necessity List appearing later in this document for performance and practice equipment you will need.  
6.  Concert Band  Performance Attire
​
Student families purchase formal Concert Band attire and black shoes.  Uniforms Committee coordinates the measurement and purchase of new tuxedos and floor-length gowns.  This is done in the first 3-4 weeks after the start of the school year in the Fall. Of course, attire from prior years may be used and we expect to coordinate an exchange program for parents wishing to sell last year’s garments.   Student families also purchase coordinating black formal shoes. Expect to receive further information from the Band Director at the beginning of the school year.
7.  Color Guard Uniform
DRBB provides the base Color Guard uniform.  Color Guard Shoes, gloves, makeup, undergarments and any auxiliary uniform pieces are paid for separately by each participant.  The Color Guard Liaison will notify enrolled Color Guard of any extra uniform requirements.
Optional Items
1.  Student Pre-Football Game Meal
Our Hospitality Committee coordinates providing pre-football game meals to the students.  This typically consists of a Chick Fil A chicken sandwich, chips and water. Due to the number of meals provided and the short time we have to serve them on game day, our Hospitality Committee cannot take special orders, preferences, or be asked to honor food allergies & etc.   Generally, more than 95% of our Marching Band elects to purchase these meals. If you choose to decline this service, please provide substitute food and drink for your student’s pre-game meal.  
​$50 for 10 meals.  
2.  Extra White Band Camp T-Shirts and Show Shirts
Extra White Band Camp T-Shirts and Show Shirts can be purchased for $20 a piece.

3.  Extra Show Patch
Extra Show patches can be purchased for $10 a piece.
