They share insights, techniques, and practical advice for band directors looking to build and support strong colorguard programs. Don’t miss it! Keith Casey shares his journey from Georgia horn player to colorguard expert. With experience at JSU, Star of Indiana, and Lassiter HS under Alfred Watkins, Keith eventually helped open a new school and now teaches at Desert Vista HS. A 27-year English teacher, he explains how he cleans guard work, the band director’s role in program development, and key differences between teaching band and colorguard. His advice? “Write to the booms!” Brandy DuBose, ASU Colorguard Director and Blue Knights staff member, brings a wealth of experience from Texas and DCI. She discusses her role at ASU, her broader involvement in the colorguard world, and the importance of clear, manageable instruction.
