The Creation of Manifest 516
Manifest 516 was started by Alba and Ericka in the fall of 2000. We enjoyed working with the school color guard so much, but wished to have more freedom and wished we could use Christian songs. That is when we began looking at the possibility of an independent guard and making it a spiritual one. We hope that we can become a competitive team during winter guard seasons and more of ministry during the summers and color guard seasons.

Our Backgrounds and Qualifications
Ericka is the music genious. She was very involved in band during her high school years and then studied music in college. She is currently an assistant band director at Highland Park High School. She became interested in color guard during the school year of 2000-2001 and decided she wanted to be a co-sponsor during the winter guard season of 2002. Ericka has learned to do guard and is a natural at it and her music abilities are quite helpful in the choreography process.

Alba also, was involved in band during high school and was on the color guard team for three years. Alba went to Marching Auxileries her senior year and made it onto the "All American" team and had the opportunity to perform in the Citrus Bowl half-time extravaganza. Alba also took dance lessons at The Dance Factory during high school and took some dance classes in college. While in college, Alba performed in the spring dance show in the spring of 1997. Alba is currently at the end of her second year sponsoring the Highland Park High School Guard.
