LeanderMomma Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 It’s just about time for another winter guard season to begin! I’m pumped and ready to watch some amazing guard work both in Texas and across the country. Time to renew my Flo account soon! And on this subject, LISD (South) is putting on an exhibition of their winter shows tomorrow night (Saturday) at Rouse. Leander will be there along with Vista Ridge, Rouse, Cedar Park and even the Vandegrift dance team. I’m not sure Vandy is competing this WGI season, but it will be interesting to see an indoor performance from the Vision Dance Co. Doors open at 6pm in the Rouse competition gym. It’s free to attend but donations are accepted. Y’all come! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartanBandAlum Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Ugh why do y’all have to be so far away? LeanderMomma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodlandsMom4ever Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 That would be so fun to go watch! Too bad it's a little far for our schedule to make it. Next week my Jr high color guarder gets to do her first competition this year. Not quite where the high school kids are, but it's fun to see them as they start the skills. She is doing rifle this year for the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my preschool staff has a daughter in it. I hope more and more high schools will begin training these kiddos in MS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanderMomma Posted January 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Does Glenn have a WGI show? I dont follow Glenn much. They aren’t listed on the announcement sheet so I am guessing they aren’t doing either color guard circuit this year. I’m also curious what Vandegrift plans to do this season since they ARE listed on the performance list. I did not see them listed in any WGI or TCGC schedule however, but maybe I am not looking in the right places. I am very anxious to see an indoor performance from them tonight!

Dog885 Posted January 21, 2019 Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 On a related note, Anderson has brought back an indoor drumline program and we'll be competing in TCGC at Bowie (Feb. 2), Cedar Park (Feb. 23), Akins (Mar. 2), and State is April 6th.

LeanderMomma Posted January 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2019 By the way, Vandegrift did not perform at the preview on Saturday so I am guessing they are not participating in winter guard quite yet. Maybe next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeanderMomma Posted January 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 Disappointing to see that FloMarching isn't going to carry WGI San Antonio. I'll be down there myself, but I'm wondering why Flo won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeanderMomma Posted January 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 We still have to go to that place you were talking about!!! Yes. When you boys are in Austin next, we will go. Y’all come down/up the night before and we can make it a pre-BOA Austin party. Y’all can crash at our house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanderMomma Posted January 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 And I know an AMAZING breakfast taco place in San Marcos and an incredible burger place in New Braunfels for the WGI San Antonio weekend. Man, how do we ALWAYS get distracted by food?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WoodlandsMom4ever Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 I just left the TCGC Morton ranch competition. Daughter is in the cadet class with her jr high group. I would have loved to stay and watch the higher classes throughout the day- but other kids have other activities. I feel like I’m just starting to feel like I know a little more about marching band- and now I’m needing to learn more about color guard and scoring and stuff. Does anyone have suggestions of where/how/what to read/watch to learn more? I was surprised to see Highschool groups down in the cadet class with the jr high groups.

WoodlandsMom4ever Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 Nope. the jr high just sticks to the Houston area competitions- and I’ve got too many other things with other kids still at home to be able to go just for “me” to enjoy. some day I’ll be able to catch the competitions just for fun and not just as a parent. ☺️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
