[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]The 2018-19 season will mark a huge milestone for the Desert Vista guard program.

In the winter of 2019, the Desert Vista Winter Guard will be competing at the Winter Guard International Championships in Dayton, OH.

With this opportunity, it is crucial our students are properly trained with the appropriate skill sets to adequately prepare them over the course of the next two seasons. The skill sets implemented in the summer are designed to improve our technical proficiency, thus allowing us to add to the degree of difficulty during the winter within our program.

At the start of the winter season, those basic skill sets are enhanced by increasing the level of difficulty. This allows those students who have put in the time over the summer and fall to continue being challenged with newer, more varied tasks in the winter as their level progresses.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
