Batallion Envoys Attend 2017 DCI Annual Meetings In Atlanta

Representatives from The Battalion traveled to Atlanta this past week to attend the DCI Annual Meetings – a series of trainings, workshops, and collaboration sessions designed to advance Drum Corps International and its member organizations.

??The proceedings marked several milestones for the corps. After completing a successful year as an affiliate member of DCI’s Open Class, The Battalion was unanimously voted in as a full member for 2017. Additionally, Executive Director Dallin Hatch was nominated and voted in as a member of the Open Class Advisory Committee, where he will serve alongside directors from other Open Class corps for two-year term.
