Allegan County Ensemble

Allegan County Ensemble Allegan County Ensemble (ACE) is a winter color guard (winter guard) program based in Allegan County, Michigan. Director: Issa Lewis

Allegan County Ensemble (ACE) was founded in 2011 by Mark Heather as an outlet for local high school students to continue to work on their colorguard skills outside of marching season. The group performed in exhibition at Michigan Colorguard Circuit (MCGC) events. In 2012, Issa Lewis joined the staff as Director, and the group came out competitively in MCGC for the first time. The following year,

the team took the bronze medal home at MCGC State Championships, and in 2016, ACE won the gold medal in Independent Regional A. ACE is now open to anyone aged 22 and younger, with middle school students allowed on an audition basis. We are a family made up of students from many schools, many districts, and many backgrounds, and we're proud of it! We welcome all to come and see what ACE is about, and how it positively impacts youth in Allegan County and beyond.

TODAY'S THE DAY! Our WiddyUP fundraiser runs November 17-December 8. ACE Winter Guard is an independent organization--all of our funding comes through fundraising and sponsorship, or else it comes out of our members' pockets. Since our goal is to always keep costs as low as possible and create an accessible space for anyone to participate, regardless of their financial situation, these fundraisers are vital to us. We hope you'll consider donating even a small amount to help these amazing young people do what they love!
