Color Guard/Winter Guard
Color Guard provides an opportunity for students to develop self-expression and creativity through musical interpretation incorporating body, flag, and weapon techniques. The Color Guard meets and performs with the marching band at athletic events, parades, and contests. Students audition in the Spring for the season that follows in the Fall, and students receive one high school physical education credit for band participation.
The Winter Guard program rehearses and competes during the winter season, and is a separate audition from the
fall Color Guard. The group competes in the Indiana High School Color Guard Association (IHSCGA)
from January to late March. Rehearsals are outside of the school day.
