random ramble, no point really

guard girls rock. i was the captain of my high school color guard. we pretty much sucked. we tried to start up a winter guard my freshman year but the school gave us no money so the whole thing fell apart after two years. it's probably the hardest thing i've ever done. sometimes i wonder why i tortured myself for four years, considering the only way i could possibly apply these skills is if i join the circus(still crossing my fingers on that one). but it's fun to bust out the old flag and put on a show for my drunken friends. proves to be a riot from time to time, especially when i crack myself in the head. and oh yeah, i love it.

Guard

Wed, 02 Jun 2004 04:45:21 GMT

I'm probably older than everyone else here (Good God) but I marched winterguard in HS (Ramona HS in Riverside, CA) and then went on to march the 1984 season of Freelancers. Wow - that WAS a long time ago.

I'm also more of a rifle than a flag.

Hi from the new girl

Howdy! a little about me:

I am colorguard obsessed- I love playing I love performing- I love teaching- I love watching- I love learning...

I did winterguard for one year in North Syracuse New york- got a good base there... moved to prescott, arizona where i did marching band and winterguard for four years and my potential went right down the drain from lack of training, but i learned about show design and running a guard as i did both for them (ack!!!)... did marching band two years at the university of northern colorado... i marched one season with rings of saturn, a relatively new independent guard in tucson, arizona with great people and they will eventually go places :) And i marched half a season with Signature WG (due to unfortunate circumstances i had to leave them before performance season bega... I am still sad about that- b4t while with them i got to learn under the reative team for northern lights- amazing amazing amazing) ... i assisted with a couple tucson high school guard programs and had an amazing time- i love high school kids that have never spun before they are so eager to learn and are not aware that they "can not" do something- so will do whatever you ask- even if it is a front handspring under a six horizontal on rifle caught in the splits... not that i ever asked them to do it- but you know that within a week they would :P

Anyways=- I live in sf now and am not currently marching. I may get back into it someday. I am currently spinning fire and having oodles of fun taking my guard experience into that. Yeah.

Newbie on Tribe

Yvette — Wed, 06 Apr 2005 20:08:50 GMT

If you're a member of the Winter Guard tribe, no need to read this all over again! I'm just trying to get out there, so don't be mad!!!
Hey guys, obviously as the subject claims, I'm a newbie. I think I may have found a new home! ~*sniffle*~ That's if you guys want me though. ;) I'm 20 yrs old, in Atl, Ga. I was in color guard for 4 seasons, and winter guard for 3. (It wasn't available until my sophomore year.) I was also a guard instructor for a short period of time.....long story short, I got the music the thursday before pre-camp, and the drill charts the tuesday OF band camp, and the director wanted the entire show on, taught, and pretty much perfect, by the end of band camp. (Yea right!) The girls had never done tosses before, pretty much just spins from side to side.... ~*sigh*~ It was fun while it lasted. Anyway! I'm out of high school, have been for a while, and now I need new friends!!!!

How'd you start?

Lisa — Thu, 12 Feb 2004 05:32:31 GMT

So, since no one's chatting, I guess I'll start! I started Winter Guard my junior year of high school, in Florida. But I started Color Guard freshman year in California. And as much as I love dancing it, sabre is my favorite. How about you guys?

teaching?

Louise — Sun, 20 Feb 2005 23:39:37 GMT

where i grew up we didn't have color guard or anything remotely like it. it wasn't until I left home that I have ever encountered anythinglike it. is there a place or someone who teaches pathetic old folks like myself(32)? Call it what you llike but I'm at an age and financial place that taking fun classes is a desire. thanks
