Color Guard

The Color Guard are members of the marching band who add visual impact and color to the musical performance in a challenging activity that combines equipment work (flags, rifles and sabers) with dancing and marching.

Auditions are held in May of each year and are open to all upcoming and current Volunteer High School students.  Color guard members are not required to play a musical instrument.  Specific requirements vary each time, but often will include equipment work, movement and marching fundamentals.

Color Guard participants are full members of the marching band.  Therefore, they are expected to participate in all marching band activities, to help in fund-raising and are required to follow all applicable rules and regulations of the band.  Participants are required to be a member of the Auxiliary Band Class (Fall semester only).
