What is Color Guard?



About SABRE Guard

The SHS SABRE Guard offers participation to all genders.  Color Guard is both sport and art that brings a visual aspect to music through dance and equipment (flag, rifle, and sabre).  In colorguard you will learn new skills, make new friends, build confidence, work hard, and have fun!

Fall Guard:

This activity demands physical involvement in after school practices, evening marching band rehearsals, summer band camp, and many performances including all home football games, parades, and marching band competitions.  Students do not need any experience to join the SHS SABRE Guard.  All you need is dedication and passion; our trained staff will teach you all of the skills 
necessary to be successful.  This program typically goes from May/June-October.

Winter Guard: 

Winter Guard will be a new program for Streamwood this year.  It will also be for all genders and no experience is needed, you do not have to have been in fall color guard to participate in winter guard. . Winter guard does not involve the band and takes place entirely indoors.  This activity demands physical involvement in evening 
guard rehearsals, winter intensive camp, some Saturday morning rehearsals, and four color guard competitions.  This program runs from November-April.

For more information about joining the SHS Sabre Guard, please email Mr Mollenkamp at maxmollenkamp@u-46.org.  Also, make sure to check this page frequently for the latest SABRE Guard news and information.
