Informative Essay On Colorguard

I am auditioning to be an officer because I believe I can make Company a great experience for everyone on it and be a strong leader and representative of Cottonwood Dance. I think that having a strong leader is fundamental to the success of a group. My physics teacher, Ms. Richey, is someone I look up to as a leader; she makes class fun and engages us while still clearly getting the information across. She is also very confident in her abilities and will straight up shut you down (kindly) if you are trying to make up a physics scenario that is not possible. She is so intelligent yet fun that I aspire to be like her when I have to be a leader. I believe I am qualified to be an officer this year because I have had a couple of different

What is color guard? Color guard is a true test to physical strength and ability and it’s where I spend every waking hour trying to improve each toss, turn, and count. Color guard is where two, almost three dozen girls spend most of our free time practicing something that will not get us a job. It won’t pay us in anything but joy. And as cliché as that sounds, it’s true. Color guard will probably never give us more than thousands upon millions of life lessons. Yet, we all still do it because we love it. Color guard is striving to be the best you can be. It’s socializing with some people you can’t stand half the time because somehow they became like family and mean more than the world to you. It’s sacrificing so many Fridays to do what you love.

The first time I auditioned for the Elizabeth High School Color Guard, I would never have imagined it to play such a crucial role in my life. I have participated on this artistic and athletic manner for three years and it has been one of the preeminent decisions I have ever made in my life. For those who may not fully understand what color guard really is, it is a time intensive sport. Yes, a sport. Try jazz running across the football field for nine minutes while dancing and spinning a six-foot flag or a 36-inch rifle. Not only is your body physically pushed to the limits, but you need to have high levels of mental coordination. Nonetheless, color guard has shaped my character and without it, my life would not be half as phenomenal as it is today. Because of the laughs I had, the people I met, the confidence I gained, I am the person I am today.

I've been involved in my high school's marching band since the start of my freshman year, and it takes an extreme amount of time, hard work, and dedication. I'm considering joining the “Pride of the Southland” band or a drum corps group to continue bettering myself in color guard. It is not a recognized sport, but it is a huge part of who I am, and I wouldn't want to be spending my time anywhere else then on the band field. Being captian of my guard of twenty girls, has taught be great responsibility, how to earn people’s respect,and what it takes to be a great leader. I truly do believe I could be a wonderful assest to a major color guard by taking everything I've learned,and all my experiences in the last four years from my current marching

1. Discuss the four components of corporate social responsibility and how they relate to a charitable campaign such as (Product) RED.

I am writing to you to request if you could complete an online survey on my behalf as I try out for a leadership position. If you didn't know, I’ve been involved in marching band and winter guard for three years now, and for my final year I would love to have the advantage to help lead the color guard team as a captain. A recommendation from you would be much appreciated and help provide information to Mr. Fleischmann with selecting a captain for next year. If you would like to help me, the survey is attached at the bottom of this request.

Being captain can be one of the most important aspects of a dance team, but with my hard work and determination, I can take this squad far. I am well prepared to take on the responsibility’s that come my way. As many of you know we were VERY close to making it to state last year and I would love to have that feeling of not just coming close but to make it to state. *KNOCK ON WOOD* I will make sure that while having fun at practice, we take our time seriously and perfect our routines. Every year if I had a problem or I was having a rough day and all I needed to do was vent the captains were there. No matter if it was during lunch or after practice they were there to talk. If I am elected dance team captain, not only will I help all of you with dance but also with anything else you are having problems with. I will make sure everyone feels comfortable and included. If they are having a bad day please don’t hesitate to pull me aside and talk about it. I am willing to listen to ideas of my co-captain and the rest of the dance team to make our dances the best they can be. I know I am far from perfect, but as captain I will work right alongside you girls and push all of us to be our

I was first introduced to colorguard the summer before my freshman year. Being put under pressure to make a rapid decision between band and colorguard, I decided to stay in my comfort zone and join the marching band. Since I already had prior experience playing flute in the band, it was the easy choice, but not necessarily the right one for me. After the marching season ended, I decided to face the fear of trying something new. I joined the colorguard team at Manor High School for the winter guard season.

Yet another accomplishment has been achieved at Chino Hills High School that only adds to the prosperity and Husky spirit of this illustrious and triumphant school. This year, Color Guard participated in and won a variety of championships including the WGI Circuit-Western Open Class Championships, West Coast Winter Circuit-Open Class Championships with a first place medal, the WGASC Circuit with a silver medal, and the WGI Open World Class Championships in Dayton, Ohio which they took 16th place in out of the world. When interviewing Kaitlyn Parsons (Captain), Mallory Williams, Ashley Kearns, Hunter Adams, and Nina Penzo (Captain) about this prodigious attainment, they each stated that it has been an unforgettable journey that has been both an individual and a team effort. Members of Color guard are split into two teams,

Color guard has morphed over time; from a royal and regimented important civic duty honoring the kings, rulers and dynasties, to a strategic place on a battlefield and, finally, to an honorable activity commemorating the pride that one has in their school, college or branch of armed service. The guarding of colors dates back to ancient times and is mainly documented from the Roman era. The use of the flag becomes specific and the use portrays a clear message by the ninth century in Islam. Later, in the fifteenth century in England, color guard corps emerges as a strategic functioning group on the battlefield and this structure reaches its height in the seventeenth century in Europe and the Americas. Color guard is now firmly planted into modern military, religion and band as more of a display of pride rather than the earlier tactical function.

Another boring assembly was in the making as I walked into my junior high school gymnasium. My best friend at the time, Kelsey, was very excited because the Valencia high school color guard was going to perform one of their routines in an attempt to get people to join the team. She was already on the guard, hence her motivation to attend this assembly. Before this point, I did not know color guard even existed. According to Kelsey, color guard is a performing art in which a team performs a dance routine centered around the use of flags, rifles, and sabers. Both her insistence and the awe-inspiring performance of the guard moved me to join the team my freshman year of high school. Even though we did not win at championships, it was overall

I am honored to be a recipient of this scholarship. The Bones ColorGuardians have been there for me since the beginning of my journey, whether it be for something serious like leg wraps or tiger balm to something as small as chapstick. I thank everyone who has been a part of this organization, because without them this corps wouldn’t what it is today. The bcg has been one of the biggest influences in my life, both on and off the field. I was born and raised in Odessa, Texas, so there is not much of any DCI or band influence. I was introduced to the organization when Odessa hosted Thunder In The Desert, as soon as I saw Crossmen's show "Fragile", I knew I had to be a part of the organization. With the help of my family, friends, and sponsors

The weapons line in Color guard is made up of the most elite members of the group. Spinning a rifle is harder than a flag, the rifle takes more muscle to toss and spin and its easier to drop. Junior year I was determined to make the rifle line. To get on the rifle line you had to be adequate at certain skills on the rifle such as, doing 100 spins on the right and left hand, and being able to toss a quad. Up until this point the biggest toss I could do was a double, and I could hardly do 10 spins let alone 100! I knew that if I really wanted to get on the rifle line I would have to work hard, and practice almost every day in June and July to get where I needed to be in time for the auditions in August. By mid July I could do the 100 spins on

As a singer, being a choral captain was always one of my dreams. Everybody talked about Red and Gold for months.  Students could not wait until the last 45 minutes of the day where all the students put down their books and focused on Red and Gold. Finally, the day we were told who got what captain spot. It was the last class of the day. I was sitting in my French Class, shaking from nerves. I could barely breath as they started to go through the categories.  It seemed as though they would never get to the Choral Category. Finally, my category was next. As a sophomore I knew I wasn’t likely to get a captain position, however I knew that
