CHS Band Director Ron Lewis presented the design of two new uniforms to the board for their approval Monday. The uniform in the center of the photo will be worn for Friday night football games and has the Columbia blue border on the white sash. A CCC logo will be added. The uniform to the right will be the competition uniform worn at contests. The uniforms are anticipated by August for use next fall. Cutting the number of uniforms ordered from 100 down to 70 allowed the switch to 2 uniforms in nearly the same budget as initially proposed (~$35,000)
