Aren’t there other forums where you can twist yourself into a pretzel to make a lame “ oooooohhh scary George Soros” post? DCP ain’t it

Rightfully so. Don’t forget your comment about VK’s cymbal line that you eventually apologized for.

Great question. I’m looking forward to the responses. Don’t forget about the groundbreaking work he did with Star and Blue Knights!

Didn’t he have some sort of golden parachute he hand wrote which was written into his contract that the BoD rubber stamped? I recollect maybe reading that on here.

It’s kind of sad a couple guys on here respond with the ‘confused’ emoticon over the sa of a 16 year old. There’s no need for confusion, it’s quite black and white. No more shame. I’m proud to speak out.

It’s not really the flex he makes out to be. No 15 yo teenager has the brain or emotional development to consent. My “Me Too” moment occurred when I was a 16 year old drum major marching in the Lacrosse, WI Octoberfest parade in 1977. I was accosted by a drunk woman who proceeded to feel me up and then called me a little f’n f****t when I didn’t respond to her to her expectations. No one came to my defense, as a matter of fact people egged her on. If it happened today I would own the city of LaCrosse.

First of all, you haven't gotten a response and you are jumping,ping to a huge conclusion here Alumni groups are ALL ADULTS. Soundsport groups DO background check staff, but the participants are all KIDS. DCI doesn't;t background check the performers either because they are kids. They all complete safesport. What else do you expect DCI to do? Do you have anything to do all day rather than stir up drama here? And what does any of your post have to do with the cadets bakruptcy. Why do you insist on turning every thread into a "DCI isn't doing enough and doesn[t care". Either use the quote feature correctly or delete those last paragraphs. The way you posted it looks like it came from Terri. It’s not attributed to the original poster. Thanks

People either never knew or chose to forget Blue Stars were a DIII/A60 powerhouse.

This should ultimately result in growing their programming. The Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra undertook a similar study 20ish years ago. Since doing so they have purchased their own facilities (it’s yuge!), increased their donor base exponentially, grown their programming to SEVEN! orchestras. Kids have access to programs as diverse as bucket drumming to an internationally touring orchestra and everything in between. https://myso.org/programs/

I think it was made of wood. It had a “hey kids, let’s put on a show” quality to it.

I was attacked on here by a couple people for criticizing that prop’s integrity. I think I called it overbuilt yet surprisingly unsafe. It’s good to hear Jim thought similar. I feel vindicated.

Talent wise, Blue Stars were not an 11th place corps. I hope the members are given a product that’s able to come together over the course of the season.

Very very cool

Are you resurrecting all the old threads that reference bodhran players? 😂
