Winter Guard

The Winter Guard this year includes two separate groups.  Students in grades 6-8 will participate in Cadet Guard.  Students in grades 9-12 will participate in Varsity Winter Guard.  These rehearse after school during the winter season. Members of this activity learn the techniques and fundamentals of performance in color guard and compete in IHSCGA contests throughout the season. 9-12 Grade Students must audition to join Varsity Winter Guard, but no experience is required.
