Start your journey to become a member of the Santa Clara Vanguard today! This November and December, we will host 3-day events designed to give prospective BRASS, COLOR GUARD and PERCUSSION auditionees the full Vanguard Experience. From Friday evening to Sunday afternoon, you'll get a taste of drum corps life - sleeping in a gym, eating from our food truck, and rehearsing with our world class staff. Come ready to learn new things, meet new people, and have a great time!

The three camps are taking place on:

November 18-20th: TX - DFW Area

November 25-27th: CA - SoCal Area (No percussion)

December 2-4th: CA - Bay Area

Content editor needed for the Vanguard History website

We are collecting stories of Vanguard and building a site to document them on the web. We have built momentum with a group of volunteers working on the site. Now our main need is a content editor to give the site a consistent voice that tells the rich stories of Vanguard.
