The Color Guard at Towson University is a very specialized, auxillary group that adds color, dance, and excitement to an already exciting marching band. The color guard is integrated with the instrumentalists and complements the sound with stunning visuals. The Color Guard members include students that are part of the band but do not play instruments. These students rehearse during the same time as the rest of the Band.
All participants perform at football games, exhibitions, parades, and other performances.
T o become a member of the TU Color Guard, an application and an audition are required. Auditions begin in December for the 2001 season.
