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.

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 18 members in the
Color Guard and this year we will use flats to disguise the costume and
flag changes in the show. At the Mahomet Marching Band
Competition last year, the Guard placed 3rd out of 12 color
guards.
Watch as the Guard adds new things to each routine every
performance. This year we have 4 separate flags sets and will
change "silks" (flags) 3 times during the show. The color and
pattern of each silk are applied to reflect the mood and character of
each selection. We have also added new equipment - air blades."
