Fran Haring Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 A week or so to go. Last year's top two DCA corps... an up-and-coming DCA corps... two entertaining alumni corps... and a fife and drum corps for a nice change of pace. Plus a wonderful venue. And a turkey dinner. And an emcee who pronounces names correctly once in a while. Hope to see you in Elverson on May 13th!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fran Haring Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 As always, it was a good night at Twin Valley High School!!! Miserable weather outdoors all day... it forced all the corps to stay inside. But everyone made the best of the situation. From me, a big "thank you" to Bill Powers, Tom Moore, and Rick Thomson for all their help!!! They certainly make my job easier.... always fun working with these guys!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
