Michigan District #1
Color Corps
The Regalia (uniform) of the Fourth Degree
The cape, chapeau, sword and tuxedo were inspired by the naval officers' uniform of the late 1800's.
The ceremonial sword is worn to signify Christian Knighthood to symbolize defense of Church, country and freedom and to show reverence for the Eucharist and respect for the clergy.

Vice Supreme Master Blue Cape

Upcoming Fallout for the District
Sacred Heart Color Corps Academy
The first ever Color Corps Academy was held on Saturday, March 21, 2009 and was a huge success. We had 136 Color Corpsmen attend the session.
Many expressed an interest in Color Corps Academy 201 so plans are in place to hold Color Corp 101 again and 201 during 2010. There was also some who expressed an interest in establishing their own Drill Teams! If you are interested in having Color Corp Academy held at
your location and make it available to everyone, please let us know.
If you are interested, contact Cliff Wasmund, Secretary to the Master and Color Corps Commander, Sacred Heart Assembly at (586) 781-4729.
