A Color Guard is selected each spring for the following year. Those selected by audition will
register for band and be graded accordingly. The purpose of the Guard is to enhance the band’s
marching performances with choreographed visual effects. They will use a variety of props with
flags being their primary tool. This group will perform at all marching functions as a part of the
Marching Jay Band. Uniforms are chosen or created according to the theme of the show and
music for that year. Cost of some items of apparel may be the responsibility of the member.
Color Guard has additional required rehearsal times.

The Color Guard performs at the Lafayette Contest of Champions September 24, 2011.
