Winter Guard
Winter Guard is a performing troupe that combines a beautiful blend of movement and dance with technical routines of flags, rifles, and sabres performed indoors to recorded music. Winter Guard participates in several competitions throughout the season. We are judged and scored, and compete with other groups to become better in our art and sport.
Winter Guard is an excellent complement to the Color Guard in the fall Marching Band program. However, you do not have to participate in Color Guard in order to participate in Winter Guard.
