The President of the United States of America

Welcome March 5, 2003

I am pleased to send warm greetings to Winter Guard International as you host your annual World Championships.

This competition provides a great opportunity for color guard and percussion ensembles to demonstrate their talents and skills and for people to view and listen to outstanding performances.

Participating in activities such as a color guard or percussion ensemble can be part of a well-rounded education. Young people performing in such programs learn discipline, focus, and teamwork that can help them in the classroom and in their future careers. I commend your participants for their achievements, and I encourage them to keep setting high goals as they prepare for new challenges ahead. I also salute their parents and instructors for their encouragement and support of your efforts.

Best wishes on this special occasion.

The Mayor of the City of Dayton

Welcome April 10, 2003 On behalf of the City of Dayton, I am pleased to welcome members of the Winter Guard International, Sport of the Arts to Dayton, Ohio for your impressive World Championships. Congratulations! We salute your mission to foster positive experiences for all who participate by promoting education, creativity, and freedom of expression through the unification of pageantry and the performing arts. Also, we congratulate your organization and its participants for 26 years of enriching the lives of youth, not only in the United States, but also abroad.

While we understand you are all extremely busy and focused during this event, we hope you will find the time to enjoy our city.

As Dayton is home to the Wright Brothers and the “Birthplace of Aviation,� it is only natural that our attractions would feature aviation.

You can learn about the history of flight by visiting the Aviation Trail or the United States Air Force Museum, just to name a few.

I extend my very best wishes for a successful World Championship event in 2003 and look forward to your return in 2005!

Sincerely,

Rhine McLin Mayor

The Executive Director of WGI Sport of the Arts

Welcome April 10, 2003 Greetings to everyone gathered in Dayton for the 2003 WGI World Championships. The 10,000 young people competing here this weekend are examples of the best the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Japan and the Netherlands has to offer. Their talent and dedication never ceases to amaze. Hours of tireless training go into each and every show, and regardless of score, deserve all of our appreciation and applause.

I am also pleased to welcome the Bulldogs from Tamarac, Florida who will be performing in exhibition this weekend. The Bulldogs are the first Special Olympics color guard created for young people with special needs. If anything speaks of the power of teamwork and dedication, it is this group of extraordinary performers.

In these troubled times, it is my hope that this World Championship proves to be as inspiring to you the spectator as the young people who inspire all of us at WGI. They are the future of not only of pageantry, but indeed the world.

The President of WGI Sport of the Arts

Welcome April 10, 2003 On behalf of the Board of Directors of WGI Sport of the Arts, it is my pleasure to welcome each of you to the 2003 World Championships.

I would like to thank the office staff and the many volunteers that make this weekend the biggest moment in pageantry.

Nearly 10,000 young people from the United States, Canada, Great Britain, the Netherlands and Japan will be performing this weekend. It is truly an international moment. As an audience, please show your support for the young people here this weekend. The performers are working to entertain each of you with their efforts.

Welcome

In a recent article in the New York Times, playwright Wendy Wasserstein stated: “In tentative and isolating times, it is grounding to embrace an art form that is fundamentally based on collaboration… Performing is an act of craft, courage and continuity that is ultimately reassuring both to those who practice it and to those who appreciate it.”

With all of the economic and political turmoil in the world, it seems profoundly important that our art forms — the winter guard and competitive drum line activities — are not only surviving, but growing in ways that our founders could never have imagined. In April 1978, when 34 guards gath-

ered to compete in a small gym in suburban Chicago, could anyone in attendance have ever dreamed that WGI would be where it is today? The 2003 Winter Guard International World Championship will showcase more than 300 winter guards and 150 percussion ensembles.

Of course, with growth comes challenge. Beyond addressing the ever-shifting difficulties of facilities and crowd management for our increasing number of fans, and continued education of our adjudicators, WGI is committed to ensuring that all of our competitors are

treated fairly and consistently. The A Class has grown so significantly in recent years that a “cap” was placed on the number of guards (117) allowed to compete at the

WGI World

What is your fondest memory from the 2002 season?

I would have to say WGI Finals! I finally had the finals performance I had worked so hard for so long to have and that coupled with a rewarding season and a talented guard family made for a memorable ending.

— Travis Hatfield, Onyx

2003 World Championships.

This decision was made because that is the maximum number of units that could fit into that show without adding another site for competition.

But our art form isn’t just growing in sheer numbers, it is also significantly broadening in diversity and international representation. The 450-plus units who will compete this weekend hail from over 30 states and five countries. Following in the footsteps of crowd favorite Aimachi (whose drum line returns to WGI this year), a new Japanese guard, Fusion, will no doubt attract much attention. Among the numerous Canadian guards

as fans, well, we just enjoy it. As Ms. Wasserstein went on to say in the previously-mentioned article, “Walking into a theater [or in our case, a gymnasium], I always feel a civility and profound anticipation for things to come. That civility is crucial in the best and worst of times.”

If this is your first WGI World Championships, we hope you come away from the weekend with a greater appreciation for our extraordinary art form and the thousands of remarkable people who participate in it. We invite you to See the Music… Hear the Color… Taste the Victory…

Feel the Arts…

— Philip Mayard

Championships in attendance, longtime finalist Sonnor returns to the WGI scene at this year’s championships.

Thurrock Academy from England and The Girls Gang from The Netherlands will also make their WGI debuts this weekend.

Audiences can look forward to the long-awaited return of South Shore Drill Team from urban Chicago, as well as the enormously popular Light Brigade from Philadelphia’s inner-city. A very special guest unit performing in exhibition will be the Tamarac Bulldogs from Miami, Florida — the only guard in the country made up of Special Olympics students.

According to Ellen Kleinert-Cohn, director of the Bulldogs, “We’re trying to bridge the gap between the special population and the regular population. They can

As this program goes to press, our world sits on the precipice of a military conflict few of us understand, let alone feel we have any control over. By the time you read this, we may in fact be a world at war. It’s a distressing thought. Still, many of us have looked forward to this weekend with great anticipation.

As performers, we have worked many long, arduous hours over the past months and hope to be rewarded not only by fair scores, but also by the applause of the audience and appreciation of our fellow competitors. As directors and instructors, we believe in the importance of our art forms both to the quality of our students’ lives, as well as to our own. And

In the competitive arena, there is a partnership between designers, performers and judges. The competitive nature of what we do requires the judge to be accountable to all competitors in determining placement and ranking. This accountability occurs by comparing specific qualities in each program to those of all other competitors in that class.

Often the viewer responds to programs based only on what they like, and they don’t have the awareness of what the judges are required to evaluate and score. The scoring system measures the curriculum, which is the design of the show and it rewards the performers for achievement and excellence.

Performers could not exist without a show to perform, and designers could not exist without performers to bring that show to life.

What lessons has winter guard taught you?

Responsibility, time management, discipline, confidence.

— Ashley Starr, Northmont HS

The Judging System The qualities that judges measure for color guard are divided into four areas: General Effect, Ensemble Analysis, Individual Analysis of Equipment and Individual Analysis of Movement.

At World Championships, the guards are judged by a double panel to assure the fairest and broadest evaluation possible.

General Effect (GE) The judge rewards the plan of events or effects. Effects can be intellectual, emotional or aesthetic.

This caption is about the WHOLE and is brought to life through the performer.

Ensemble Analysis (EA) The judge analyzes the quality of the design, the depth and correctness of the composition and the technical and expressive excellence demonstrated by the performers.

extensive period of trial judging.

Judges applying for WGI approval must complete a home study process, successfully complete the judges’ Academy, trialing on guards in every class, and participate in a continuing education program that encompasses annual study requirements and clinics. They are a body of professionals who have come from the activity and are now working to perpetuate the unique experience WGI Sport of the Arts offers. Many are trained in dance and theater and bring that knowledge to the performers. Many are educators and professionals who share a common understanding of the gigantic role the pageantry arts played in their own lives, and who endeavor to offer a quality experience to the thousands of young people who grace our stage and give us their best.

2002/2003 What is your fondest memory from the 2002 season?

The Churchill color guard medaled in the 2001 season, giving us the opportunity to perform in “world” class the following year. During the 2002 season, it was an honor to be competing at the highest level we are capable of. It was an AMAZING feeling to know that we had reached our goal.

— Meagan Pauley, Winston Churchill HS

What is your personal goal for the 2003 season?

To practice and perform at a progressively higher level every day. — Michael Cotton, Warsaw HS

Unit Promotions In an effort to ensure that units are in the appropriate classification of competition, WGI implemented a new review process for the color guard division this year. If a unit was deemed to be in the wrong class by a WGI staff member, judge or an instructor, a Review Committee consisting of the Educational Director, Task Force Coordinator, Task Force Instructors and the Open and A Class Representatives would review a video of the group’s performance at a WGI regional. If a majority of the officials believed the group was misclassified, the unit would then be promoted to the next class level.

These units should celebrate their accomplishment and continue the quest toward competing in the World Class. Congratulations!

I have a goal for everyday life that I also apply to color guard: to live each day with no regrets.

The most special quality about the St. Ann’s organization is that first and foremost, we are a family. For many years St. Ann's was an unprecedented leader in producing excellent teams in as many as five different classes.

Every member of the St. Ann’s family, both marching member and staff member alike, feels that sense of unity between their own group and the other St. Ann’s teams. I feel so proud knowing that I performed at the 2002 World Championships with the same group I was a member of 13 years ago — Laura Hamilton

World Championships April 15-17, 2004

San Diego in 2004

It’s time to have some fun in the sun! The 2004 WGI Sport of the Arts World Championships will take place in beautiful San Diego, California. This will mark the first time that California will play host to the Sport of the Arts World Championships.

The main color guard arena will be Cox Arena at the Aztec Bowl, located on the campus of San Diego State University. California has had the largest number of units in WGI Finals over any other state for the past three years even

though Championships were held in the Midwest.

The percussion competition will be held at the Sports Arena. This arena will provide the intimate, exciting setting that percussion fans have become to expect from WGI. Based on the growth of the percussion activity, WGI expects to have a record amount of units participating once again in 2004.

San Diego is one of the top vacation destinations with an average temperature of 70°F and major attractions like the San Diego Zoo, Sea World and LEGOLAND. And of course there’s always the miles of picturesque coastline where you can surf, swim or watch the sunset after catching a day full of color guard and percussion competition.

WGI predicts a record number of participating units and fans at the 2004 Sport of the Arts World Championships. Mark your calendar now for April 15, 16 and 17, 2004 and watch for ticket information to reserve your seat.

We’ll see you in San Diego!
