About
the Colorguard |
The University of Colorado Colorguard performs with the University of Colorado "Golden Buffalo" Marching Band at all home football games. Aside from performing at the games, the Guard performs at all spirit and pep events to support the football team. Including several away trips, bowl games and at Pearl Street Stampedes.
The colorguard rehearses during the fall with the marching band on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons from 4-6pm, in addition to an hour and a half sectional rehearsal each week. Saturday's are usually reserved for game day rehearsals and performances. The members of the guard major in all different areas of study, including engineering, and are part of different campus clubs, groups and Greek houses, in addition to holding a part time jobs.
We spin all types of equipment, including 5 1/2', 6', 7' and 10' flags, as well as swing flags, boas, etc. Anything that looks good on the field. The guard also incorporates all types of dance into our shows, from jazz to lyrical and anything in between.
Performing in Folsom Stadium is just one of the many perks of being in the guard! In addition to performances, members enjoy free trips, food, fun events and Nike warm ups among other things. The members of the guard also become a very close knit group of friends who often study together and go out on the weekends!
