2025-2026

The Color Guard has a unique responsibility to interpret music through visual effects.  These effects can range from flags, wooden rifles, sabers, or other props.  Using a variety of colors, members of the Color Guard can set the mood of any Marching Band song.  Due to the relationship between Color Guard and Military Drills, you have to practice to become a member of the Color Guard Team.  How many people do you know that can toss a flag ten feet in the air?  There is a lot of work that goes into Color Guard Routines.  So, while there are many artistic elements to this sport, there is also a great deal of competition.  Due to its increasing popularity, some have even suggested that it should become an Olympic Sport.

In Color Guard, we emphasize training in the student's ability to spin, dance, and perform.  It is very much a group activity, so learning to perform together is the ultimate goal (along with having fun of course!)  The Color Guard is an integral part of the Marching Band during the Fall, providing visual support and enhancement during each performance.  Fall rehearsals and performances are in conjunction with the Marching Band Schedule - Sectionals may be added at the discretion of the instructors.
