Color Guard

The Guard is an extra- curricular activity that performs with the band for marching performance events.  The Guard uses the design of their flag, uniform selection, and body movement to provide the music performance with color and interest.
Marching Band
Tonya Ayers is the Color Guard Instructor at Unity High School.  Tonya designs the flag choreography, the flag work, teaches the flag work and rehearses the Color Guard during the summer marching band week and every Tuesday through the football season.  She also selects and designs all flags for our show.
We now have 8 members in the Color Guard and this year we will use flats to disguise the flag changes in the show.  At our home competition "Collage 2009" the Guard tied two color guards in the field of six bands for the highest score in the contest.
Watch as the Guard adds new things to each routine every performance.  This year we have 5 separate flag sets and will change "silks" (flags) 4 times during the show.  The color and pattern of each silk are applied to reflect the mood and character of each selection.
