MEDINA – The top photo shows Medina’s varsity winterguard competing Saturday in Lancaster. The students toss three rifles 30 feet high and they are caught simultaneously.

The JV winterguard, shown below, also competed in the event.

Both guards have improved their shows and scores in this highly competitive sport. Medina vies against a number of schools that have three and four times as many students.  The JV show is called “Sing with a Swing” and is set to a rousing version of Benny Goodman’s “Sing, Sing, Sing.”

The Varsity show is a take on Dick Clark’s “American Bandstand” and is set to songs of the last several decades. Caiden Class, a medina senior, has joined the guard and is depicting Dick Clark and at times playing his saxophone.

We urge supporters and fans of the band program to attend Medina’s Colorburst Winterguard show on Saturday at the high school gym where doors open at 3 p.m. and the show starts at 4 p.m.
