Winter Guard - Orem Competition

Rachael made the American Fork High School "Open" Winter Guard team. They have been practicing since November for their show. She has had a couple of Winter Guard camps where they spent the whole day or a couple of days learning their show. She has had many 6:00 am practices, practices on Saturdays and during Christmas break. And now the day has finally arrived that they will perform the show for the first time to a viewing audience.

Rachael had a dress rehearsal practice early Saturday morning, then back to the school for the bus ride to Orem High School for the competition. Richard and I were there to help load their equipment into the trailer, and then again to unload it.


The girls got their make up on.






Rachael and McKayla from the "Open" Guard and Amy and Clarissa from the "A" play Scrabble with Rachael's Cheeseit crackers.

The whole guard goes into the stadium to watch the "A" guard perform.


Richard helped the whole night along with the rest of the Band Dads helping each guard get their floor set up and then folding their floor after the performance. American Fork High School has the best Band Dads.



Now it is time for the main show. Richard is helping Rachael's guard get their floor set up.
