Try oboe? For marching band, since oboes can't march, they recommend switching to flute or clarinet as a marching instrument. I'm a flute though, so I'm not the most knowledgeable on this.

Flute, Oboe, and Saxophone would probably be the easiest to switch to.

In my band, if you need to switch instruments for jazz band or something, my band director has the clarinets switch to Saxophone. XD

i'm going to agree with everyone else here, and say sax. i played clarinet, and my little brother plays sax (originally alto, now tenor) and i've tried to play his alto a couple times. apparently tenor would be easier since it's in the same key and whatnot, but even alto is pretty easy. all the notes are the same as the upper register (since the register key on a sax is a legit octave key) and the embouchure is way more relaxed, so it's a lot easier for a clarinet to play sax than the other way around (as i learned when my brother couldn't make a sound on my clarinet...)

Yes, clarinet to tenor sax is an extremely easy learn. I picked it up in under a week when I decided to join jazz band and didn't struggle at all. (and once you're comfortable with the sax, the flute is a breeze to learn as well!)
