WESTFIELD HIGH SCHOOL
COLOR GUARD

Fall Color and Winter Guard is open to Westfield
High School 9-12 grade students (both boys and girls).

Westfield High School has two competitive color
guard ensembles; Fall Color Guard which is a section
of the Marching Bulldog Band and Winter Guard.

Fall Color Guard, which begins in August and ends in
November (with preparation clinics during the summer
months), rehearses and performs with the Marching
Bulldogs during football games and competitions. Fall
Color Guard compliments and accents the Marching
Bulldogs with its colorful flags, weapons, and
maneuvers. Auditions are not required for Fall Guard,
however, to be a member of the Fall Guard, Band
Camp is required. Fall Color Guard is under the
direction of Music Director, Steven Panoff. More
information about the Marching Bulldogs, Ensembles
and Color Guard can be found on the Marching
Bulldogs web page.

Westfield's Winter Guard is an indoor color guard
which competes in the Atlantic Indoor Association
(AIA). Winter guard season begins in November,
with competitions beginning in February and running
until the end of March/first part of April. During
Winter Guard, members may use the same equipment
and costumes as the Fall season, however skill levels
are raised, drills are different and may be more intense
and demanding than Fall Guard. Winter Guard
performs in a gym to recorded music and props are
frequently used to enhance and emphasize the
program. Due to space constraints, Winter Guard is
usually smaller in size than Fall Color Guard. All
students, including veteran Guard members, are
required to audition for a place on the Winter Guard.
It is a requirement for students to have been a member
of the Fall Guard to audition or participate in Winter
Guard. Westfield is currently looking for a Winter
Instructor. If you know someone who might be
interested, please contact the Westfield High School
Band Director!
