Fall Color Guard and Winter Guard
The Fall Color Guard is an extremely important part of the performance aspect of the Red & Silver Brigade. They give the band both the color and visual interest that are necessary to have a successful show. The Color Guard at Blue Valley West performs with flags, weapons, and dance at all home football games and competitions with the band.
Winter Guard is an extension of our Color Guard program at Blue Valley West, and is comprised of two performing ensembles: the Ruby Winter Guard and the Silver Winter Guard. They are both guard-only ensembles, that focus on more intricate spinning and movement technique than the Fall program. The Winter season runs from November through late March or Early April, with both groups performing at multiple competitions.
No previous guard experience is required for either of these groups, but there is a workshop and audition process for each. Don't worry if you don't have previous dance or spinning experience, our staff will teach you everything you need to know!
For more information about the Fall Color Guard or Winter Guard programs at Blue Valley West, please contact our Guard Director, Kate Anthony.
