Welcome to our monthly updates on sponsored Alumni activities!
The Bluecoats provide members the experience of a lifetime and that experience comes at a cost. Members are working multiple jobs, applying to scholarships and running fundraising campaigns, yet still struggle to pay their fees. Alumni can help by donating through the corps website. Select a member from the member graphics located on this page or donate to the general fund. And thank you for making 2025 Bluecoats the best it can be!
Hey Bluecoats Alumni! Remember the excitement of 2022? It’s time to do it again! Legacy Arc is back for 2025, and we want YOU to join us on the field this summer to celebrate the 5’s with some incredible music:
Livin’ for the City (1975)
Come Rain or Come Shine (1995)
Caravan Medley (1985 & 2005)
We’ll be performing in Alliance on June 28th and Canton on June 29th as part of Homecoming Weekend, with rehearsals on Friday, June 27th, and Saturday morning, June 28th, in Alliance. Plus, there’s an optional rehearsal on April 26th if you want to get a head start!

Your Legacy Arc Team
Nominating someone for the Hall of Fame, Bloo Ribbon Award and/or Unsung Hero Award is pretty simple: one person writes a nomination letter with the option to provide additional letters of support for the nominee.
These letters are extremely helpful as they provide the context to help the Recognition Committee with its deliberations before recommending candidates to the Bluecoats Board of Directors.
The window closes March 15th!
The annual Marched Madness tournament is about to kickoff. This year's theme will be to choose our favorite second minute in honor of the corps' second championship. The four play-in matches will start voting on March 3 and the full tournament will begin on March 10. The second minutes of 2016 and 2024, the champion years, will be seeded automatically into the final four. Follow along on Alumni Facebook or Bluecoats Insta feed!
