MARCHING BAND AND COLOR GUARD
Embedded Files
The RCHS Marching Band, which includes the Color Guard, begins rehearsing in the summer and continues through the football season. Performances include all home football games, pep rallies, select local parades, local competitions and exhibitions, and several CBA competitions. This ensemble is the most visible performance group at RCHS. The Marching Band is an 8th hour class open to any current ninth through twelfth grade band student. Because the activity is a direct product of the skills that are developed in the band curriculum, only students currently enrolled in a band class or comparable performing ensemble are eligible to march, with the exception of color guard. All students must meet the CHSAA eligibility requirements as outlined below. Rehearsals are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 3:30-6:30 PM.
Color Guard
Color Guard
The “Color Guard” refers to the Marching Band members who add visual impact and color to the musical performance in a challenging activity that combines equipment work (flags, rifles, sabers) with dancing, and marching. Auditions for the guard are held in April/May and are open to all Rock Canyon High School students.
Specific audition requirements vary each season, but often will include flag work, movement, and marching fundamentals. Any incoming or current RCHS student is eligible to participate. Current 9-12th grade band students must meet eligibility requirements as outlined above. Members are expected to participate in all Marching Band activities, to help in fundraisers, and are required to follow all applicable rules and regulations
