The Santa Clara Vanguard Winter Color Guard recently captured the 2009 Winter Guard International world championship, after returning to the competition scene in 2006 after a two-decade hiatus. The guard competes each weekend of the winter season in the California Colorguard Circuit (CCGC) and has performed primarily in the Bay Area, with some weekend trips to Southern California and the Central Valley. More than 90% of this year's membership is from the Bay Area. Every April they attend the Winter Guard International (WGI) championships in Dayton, OH.
The SCV winter guard won it's first California Colorguard Circuit championship in 1968, and obtained additional CCGC titles in 1970, 1971, and 1976. They have added to that string of CCGC Championships with victories 2008 and in 2009.
