We typically have lots of applicants\, so early submission is absolutely appreciated. In this form\, you will be asked to complete the following:\n\n1. Resumé – Please clearly include any pertinent marching and/or leadership experience.\n2. Cover Letter – In one to two pages\, tell us about who you are and specifically articulate your qualifications and motivations for this position. Include a significant section that discusses your ability to fit into an already existing outstanding leadership team.\n3. Two References for SCV to contact for Letters of Recommendation\n4.

(Suggested 2 minutes)\nConducting – Three 60-90 second samples of the following conducting abilities: One example that showcases your technique and fundamental abilities\, one more fast-paced\, aggressive piece of music (think drum corps closer)\, and one more lyrical example (think drum corps ballad). Be sure to capture your full body and face in this video. Audio samples should be clearly audible. Please proof this video for quality before submission – videos not meeting this criteria will be automatically dismissed.\n\nRound Two – Invitation Only:\nAll Round One participants will receive an email by 12/5/25 informing them of their status and if they will be moving on to the callback camp in Dallas\, TX on December 19-21\, 2025.
