Hey guys! Colorguard isn't really considered a sport, but, it's mainly dance type stuff. We also spin flags, rifles, sabres...etc. I'm from Ernul, North Carolina. It's right outside of New Bern, not many people have ever heard of it. It's way out in the country...and I mean wayyyy out in the country.

Hey whats up? My name is Corbin and I am also going to session three(3) in Atlanta, Georgia.

Modern color guard has evolved over the years into a form of dance theater that uses props along with movement to express dynamic passages in the music accompanying the show. Modern color guards use flags, sabres, rifles, and occasionally other equipment, as well as a mix of ballet, jazz, modern, and contemperary modern dance. Traditional color guard first began during the English reign around the same time of the American Revolution. A band would accompany the soldiers to play music to keep their spirits up and to keep them in beat. Along with the band, they also had a soldier holding a flag with their colors on it.

Colorguards can be found in most colleges, universities, high schools, middle schools, and independent drum corps. Members of colorguard teams march along with their fellow marching band members. Today the guard uses choreography and equipment for added visual appeal during a marching band show. Usually marching bands and color guards perform during football games at halftime, out of tradition. When in competition, the colorguard is judged in the captions general effect, movement, ensemble analysis, and equipment. During a competition the guard adds to the overall score of the band, but is also judged in its own category. Colorguard has been considered to be both an athletic competition and an art. Due to its popularity, it has been suggested that colorguard be included in the Olympics games.

I cannot wait, it's only about a month! I think that for arrival day, everyone who's been talking on the cite should all meet up and get to know one another. And from who's been on the cite, there aren't like, 300 at the forum, like people have said...

Hope to have one of you guys as a roomie! And that is a good idea, you know, we should come with signs and put our usernames on it so it'd be easier to identify everyone, just a suggestion though ^_^
