Winter Guard - That's a Wrap!

Check out the photos of our practice at SHS and our final performance in Trumbull at Championships on March 31st.
Stamford High's Winter Color Guard ended its season on a high note, scoring an 87.30, surpassing last week's season high and personal best when they performed their final show at Championships on March 31st in Trumbull.

Color Guard Takes 3rd in Norwalk!
Stamford High’s Winter Color Guard score jumped by leaps and bounds at the Norwalk competition on March 10th. New elements and drill design changes helped to improve our overall scores as we head into the final few weeks of the Winter Guard Season. The ladies are excited about adding more changes and improving their technical skills to score a personal best at our next competition.
Due to a late winter snowstorm on St. Patrick’s Day, Stamford High’s Color Guard and Percussion units had to cancel our scheduled competition in Naugatuck on March 17th.
Check back often for more recaps and photos. Championships are on March 31st in Trubull, CT!
