Great job everyone! We are so proud of you!
This weekend the indoor colorguard (Winterguard) group performed their first show. The judges were so impressed with their skill level that they "bumped" the colorguard up a division (more difficult competing group) to Scholastic Regional A.
Congratulations guard. We are proud of you!

Great first show of the season! Got some great feedback from the judges that we'll be able to apply before our first competition at Casa Grande HS on February 22!
Thank you as always to Doreen Shelafoe for capturing these pictures!
Less than a week until our winter guard's first performance since 2008! Come watch at Williams Field High School on 1/18 at 1:12PM!
Do you have a 5-14 year old sibling, friend, or child who one day might want to join color guard? Consider having them join The Academy Winter Youth Guard! This program is a great learning and performing experience where they can get a head start on learning the fundamentals of dance and spinning.
Any current DRHS color guard students who would like to volunteer teaching The Academy Youth Winter Guard should contact Alyssa for further information about how to get involved!
