    As the regionals are on this weekend most people will be attending or competing.

    AS I'll be away also if any comments are posted and need to be approved hopefully one or two moderators not away will attend to those, other wise it'll be Monday by the time I'm back to deal with anything or post photos and updates. Have a good weekend everyone - best of luck and safe travel again to all the teams, supporters and officials.

    Also a new page design just for Xmas soon too. As bebo are doing their normal tricks some things look a little out of alignment again, oh well.

    :)

    Actually just in case anyone thinks I'm making a joke, I am.
    I know for some it takes years of discipline, training & passion to become so good at marching it becomes second nature.

    I know what marching is like, I did it in the army for years! Try dragging a howitzer artillery canon behind you when your platoon misbehaves, then think about those extra training sessions you have to put in when your coach asks, because she wants you to learn, feel confident and make the team proud.

    Everyone has their own personal reasons for being involved with the sport of marching, whether they be a marcher, a coach, or a supporter.
    I have goals in our sport I want to achieve and I know one day I will.
    My hat goes off to all those in our ranks who keep it running and very much alive. Well Done everyone.

    Hey, great and excellent page you have here :) I have especially enjoyed browsing through the photo's (especially the older ones)

    I am desperately looking for a pair of marching boot's for my daughter (I have been trying everywhere and need before nationals).

    Her foot measurements are:

    Heel to toe: 25 1/2 cm
    Instep: 15 1/2 cm
    Calf: 27 cm

    If anyone out there can help me, i would appreciate it so very much. You can msg me through bebo or e-mail me: bkt@slingshot.co.nz

    President Pam Findlay was in Edinburgh for the final night of the Tattoo and took the opportunity to thank Collen Pobar on behalf of Marching NZ for her contribution to broadening the profile of marching via the international stage of tattoos and military functions especially the famous Edinburgh Tattoo. The presentation to Colleen was made on the esplanade at the castle with all the girls in attendance.

    Hi Kimmie, no I don't have a register but I can easily find out. You might be best to contact MNZ for that info as they are the official organization for the sport.

    There are only 3 masters teams in the South island this season.

    At the Interdominion Championship in 1978, Gill Beeson's Whitiora Supremes were not the most successful team ( though they did win the March Past ),but were perhaps the most dramatic in appearance,in their red jackets,black skirts and red and black hats with a proud cockade. They looked as if marching was their pride and their passion,and apparently it was. Thank you for helping to make a wonderful day.
