Uniform Returns

With the end of the school year, it’s time to return all issued uniforms so they can be cleaned (traditionals) or sold (competition). Outstanding uniforms WILL result in an obligation, which means seniors will not receive their diplomas, and underclassmen will not be able to go to school events like dances, etc., until the obligation is resolved.

How:

  1. Return all items at one of the in-person return dates
  2. Return to TIffini Voss’ home with advance notice (DM me in Band app or at (434)-326-6192

When and Where: Front Entrance

  • Tue, Jun 9, 5:00-6:30pm
  • If you are attending band camp, you need to return your uniform before practice begins. The later times are for seniors or those not returning to NPMK next year.

What:

  • NPMK Band: blue jacket, blue pants, black competition pants (if not already returned), citation cord, stadium coat, gauntlets (if received)
  • NPMK Guard: Tunic, stadium coat
  • NPWP: competition outfits

*Competition tunics/outfits and stadium coats should be hand washed and hung to dry.

*Black pants and traditional uniforms should NOT be washed. They’ll be dry cleaned by NPMA.
