Troopers Announce 2015 Drum Major


Recommended Posts

From the Troopers Facebook page (facebook.com/TroopersDrumCorps)

"Troopers are pleased to announce the Drum Major for the 2015 season is Gabe Gallegos.

Gabe Gallegos is a student at Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction, Colorado, where he was born and raised. There he is working towards a degree in Music Business. He is involved with many performing ensembles such as the wind symphony, the jazz ensemble, and marching band, just to name a few. Along with the instrumental aspect of performing, Gabe is also involved with the local community theatre group, the Creative Avenues Theatre Project.

Gabe's drum corps experience goes back to 2011 where he started marching with the Troopers, playing the baritone at the age of 14. He has marched every year since and served as the horn sergeant for the 2014 season.

Gabe is honored to have been chosen as the Drum Major for the upcoming season.

"We are pleased to have Gabe take on the responsibilities as Drum Major of the Troopers, his time with the Corps coupled with his leadership capabilities as Horn Sergeant we feel Gabe will do an outstanding job for years to come".--Fred Morris, Director--"

I had the pleasure of marching two seasons with him, and I know he will do awesome :)

that for one is a Trooper tradition of more modern times that I hope would get dropped for a more quality performance and conducting.

But good luck to the young man. The head of the Jim Jones DM award was himself a great Troopers DM.
