The Cajon High School Gold Star Regiment Marching Band and Colorguard operates primarily during the Fall Semester, from the late June band camp through December. The ensemble is composed of students in the wind ensemble, percussion students in drumline and front ensemble, and colorguard. The Gold Star Regiment competes at field show tournaments and parades, performing a different artistic program every year; and at football games as the football team’s pep band. The Gold Star Regiment is a visible entity in the San Bernardino community, often requested to perform at community events. All first-year wind and percussion students in the band program are required to participate in The Gold Star Regiment starting the 2023-24 academic year. Percussion membership and placement is determined by audition.
