Philosophy and Mission Statement
The Michigan Color Guard Circuit exists primarily for its participants: youth, staff, and supporters. This is always the underlying consideration for the direction and decisions of the circuit. The participants are encouraged to raise standards of achievement in terms of excellence and creativity. This must be, however, balanced with the primary need of ensuring respect for all.
Competition is the chosen method for organizing this youth activity. It is only a means of achieving higher standards. The interaction of youth and adults aimed at positive life attitudes in a professional and educational manner remains a top priority.
The Michigan Color Guard Circuit does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, sex, national origin, cultural background, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability. Its activities are based on the premise that all participants and program styles start with equal opportunity for success.
