Our application for participation in the 2026 Rose Parade has been submitted. We should know by early fall, at the latest, of our potential involvement. Designers for color guard work, music, parade block, and teaching staff have been selected. A logo and uniform designs are also being explored. Be sure to “spread the word” to fellow alumni!

Brass KnucklesThis year, we have some very cool performance opportunities and chances to see other alumni continue to do what they love to do. Here are a few of those events:

The Brass Knuckles will be performing at the tailgate once again this year. Three members are alumni of the Scouts (www.brassknucklesquintet.com)

Alumni from the Scouts, Capitolaires, and Capitol Sound will join together to perform the Star Spangled Banner before Drums On Parade (tickets) and the Whitewater Classic (tickets) shows. We hope to see you there before 6:45 PM.

Dear fellow alumnus,
We hope this message finds you well. We are reaching out to you with a shared vision of making a positive impact on the Madison Scouts in 2024 and beyond, and we believe your financial support for the C.H. Beebe Scholarship Fund can help turn this vision into reality.

The Madison Scouts Alumni Association (MSAA) is on a mission to raise scholarship funds and establish a new level of tuition support for members of the Madison Scouts. With your generous contribution, we can empower young musicians pursuing their passion to participate in a transformative experience with the Madison Scouts. Every dollar you donate will help fund prospective members and eliminate, or substantially reduce, the financial barrier for some to become a marching member of the Madison Scouts this year.

Here are a few ways you can financially support the C.H. Beebe Scholarship Fund:

The response to our initial survey has been encouraging enough for us to move forward with a second survey. More than 400 alumni sent us their survey expressing a 'yes' or 'maybe' response. Anyone can fill out this second survey, even if you did not fill out the initial survey. The results of this second survey will determine if we, in fact, participate in the Rose Parade in 2026. Regarding everyone’s big question about the cost for each participant, the more participants there are, the lower the price per person will be. That also means that the fewer participants, the more cost per person will be.
