Flags/Color Guard

WELCOME TO YORK COLOR GUARD!
We are a dance-based performance team who performs with the Dukes Marching Band during the fall Marching Season. We perform at all home football games, as well as pep rallies, Elmhurst parades, and various school/ local events.  

Check out our video to meet the 2021-2022 captains and find our more about color guard.

2023-2024 SEASON INFORMATION
A commitment to color guard means that you are able to attend:

  • Weekly summer rehearsals
  • "Band Camp"- full-day rehearsals with the band for several days before school begins
  • Weekly evening rehearsals once school is back in session (likely Monday evening)
  • Sophomores and older who would like to march halftime-- you must join the Marching Band Lunch Lab- 4th and 5th periods. Please check with your counselor to determine if you will be able to make this commitment! You may NOT do ambassadors or any other activities that would pull you from daily rehearsals.
