The Corporation JV Winter Guard is open to all 7th & 8th graders from Fall Creek Junior High, Fishers Junior High, Hamilton Southeastern Junior High, and Riverside Junior High, making this the ONLY extra-curricular activity in our district that unites students from rival schools. The intent of our winter guard program is to develop and educate students on sportsmanship, professionalism, equipment technique, body movement, and citizenship. Although this is a competitive activity, our primary goals are to instill moral values into our members & to enjoy what we are doing.
