The New Castle High School Color Guard has made Corporation history! For the first time since it's debut in 1982, the Color Guard has won First Place at a Color Guard Competition! The students, under the direction of Sonja Rupe, Technology Secretary, and new Choreographer, Joshua Fullerton, have broken new ground and confidence with their show, "Full Circle."
The music of Ludovico Einaudi was chosen for this year's theme, and the lyrical piano piece takes the audience through three and a half minutes of emotional body work, and demanding flag, saber, and rifle routines.
Rupe lovingly teared up as she spoke of her team, "All I've ever wanted is these kids to be successful. In this glorious moment, the color guard community finally got to see what I've witnessed for years!"
A few of the students have competed since fourth grade, getting their start weekly at Parker gymnasium in the Elementary Guard program. Rupe has watched them grow in skill and precision as they moved into high school. We're proud of these students and the dedication they have given to this extracurricular activity; they have continuously competed with elegance, good sportsmanship, and determination. Representing our Corporation and NCHS well on their competition journey, these guard members have our appreciation. We share in the joy. Congratulations to the Band Department on this remarkable breakthrough. Keep up the great work, NCCG!
