Audition Results

This has been a very hard decision for myself and my staff. Please know that with the growth of our winter guard program, we had to make some tough calls.

Thank you for your continued support. Congrats to all!

Re-Audition for B Guard

Ellie Liebmann (didn’t audition)

*We will be having a B Guard Congratulations Party on the 27^th of November at 3:30pm in the Band Room at the High School. Hope to see you there!*

Everyone on this list will need to be at the high school at 7am on Tuesday morning (November 13). Because of some issues, we will need to audition you again. Some of you may be on the open guard, most of you on the A guard, and some will be on the B guard. Also, we still have not heard back from the district about our winter guard tour. If we are approved, we can’t accept 8^th graders on the A guard. Thank you for your patience!

Jay has had the privilege of marching several indoor programs in the Midwest area, including Interplay Winterguard ('07, '08, '09), Zydeco Winterguard ('11) and The Pride of Cincinnati ('10, '12). Jay started his drum corps career in 2007 at the Madison Scouts. He then went on to march two more summers with the Phantom Regiment Drum and Bugle Corps ('08 and '10), where he was a member of the World Champion cast of their 2008 production "Spartacus." Following his age out in 2010, Jay began working with the Crossmen Drum and Bugle Corps in 2011, and continued working with them this past year in 2012. Jay has worked with various groups in the Midwest area, including Jenison High School (MI), Northview High School (IN), Owen Valley High School (IN), Kings High School (OH), and Center Grove High School (IN).
