WGI Advisory Board Proposals For 2019 Las Vegas Meetings
The rule and policy proposals have been submitted and released to the public by WGI for the upcoming Advisory Board meetings in Las Vegas, NV.
Each May, the WGI Advisory Board for each division of Winter Guard International meets in a location with the goal of voting on rule and policy proposals for the upcoming season. The meetings will take place on May 17-18 in Las Vegas, NV, where the Advisory Boards for Percussion, Winds, and Guard will all meet at Red Rock Casino Resort.
Also on the schedule for the weekend is the WGI Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and the Bob Wiles Memorial Golf Tournament.
May 10th marked the final date for submissions into this year's proposals. Each advisory board is made up of representatives from each of the finalists from Scholastic and Independent World, and representatives from the top 5 finalists in each of the other classes. International groups are allowed to vote for two years after meeting the other respective prerequisites.
