Save The
Guards
guard is a relatively misunderstood sport/art as you all may know. It is made
up of an underground organization of band geeks and guard chicas. Many of the
"normal" people (as we refer to those non band/guard people) have a twisted view
of what band and guard is all about. Odds are if they dont know somone that is
in guard they have noidea what goes on ,,, the hard work,,, the dedication,,,
the pride. People think its just some dumb club that a bunch of loser do. Well
THEY ARE WRONG!! the time to just sit back and ignore the ignorant haspassed !
SAVE THE GUARDS!!!
How do we do that??? We need to spread the word. The more people who know about
guard the better. People fear what they dont understand! and the only way to break
the barrier between us and them is through education.

Show This Year Location: Az Comments: i love this site, it is some of the few
good guard sites! and that girl who supposedly thinks guard is something easy
is close-minded, if only everyone knew how much i want EVERYONE to know how much
work we put into guard, and it makes me mad when people treat guard as if its
a simple thing. guard IS as much as a sport as anything else not only is it a
sport but an art that requires great performance skills. now that ihave said everything
that guard people already know and feel :) i have decided that i will write a
letter to a couple of magazines and tell them of guard, what it takes to be in
guard, and hopefully it will help to get the word out that guard isnt just "twirling
flags around"
This entry inspired me to get all you guard people out there together and get
involved. Spread the news about guard!
