Repeat Pete Has Something to Say to the Color Guard

An early start to the Saturday meant practice before competition. 

Then the ritual guard transformation--hair, make-up, white spandex, rhinestone jewels....

Then to the field--for a prelims finish of 2nd place with caption awards for best music and BEST AUXILIARY.  Again.  And.  Lotsa trophies. Smiles.


Repeat Pete says: Color Guard, Color Guard you did it again! You brought the goods to the field each competition--, your "Seasons" is summer cause you are hot and on fire.  Sweet feeling of success for a section that has worked so hard for so long to gain the respect of not only the instrument sections of the band but the student body as well.  I know their grace and elegance is proving it.

Yep Repeat Pete has a beautiful echo when those eighteen beautiful girls in white spandex take to the field to show their grace and skill.

A Fall day that began with beautiful warm sunshine, that turned to a cold, rainy, gusting wind night did not hinder these 215 kids.  No way.  They finished the finals with a second place finish, a score of 86.65 and a caption of best music.  More smiles.

When the night is all said and done...it's time to "unguard" before heading to bed for a long night's well deserved rest.

Even though M sent me a text from the bus that said "tired of hearing-- 2nd place Lindbergh"...the kids have much to be proud of!

Oh, that darn second place! It is so frustrating, especially when you are winning the captions. It will come, it WILL come!

Lin- It better come with BOA or GSL cause we eliminated two regualr competitions from our schedule this year (combo recession and Pasadena trip). I'm proud of them second or first. Wouldn't you be?!

Yowzers!! Looks like a long transformation process. White spandex and rhinestone jewels too? Sounds like what the music group "Heart" had to deal with.

How's the world of school going?? Any temptations in the lounge?
