IT'S REALLY THE PEMBROKE IMPERIALS OF THE SOUTH SHORE ,IT'S ONLY BEEN 14 MONTHS SINCE WE RE-FORMED,BUT WITH A LOT OF HARD WORK WE FELL WE COULD ENTER THE MINIS AND HAVE A DECENT SHOWING. WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE GETTING INTO BY ENTERING AGAINST SOME GREAT CORPS,AT THIS POINT WE'RE STILL GROWING IN MEMBERS AND TALENT.14 MONTHS AGO WE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE MANY INSTUMENTS BUT THANKS TO CORPS LIKE CAROLINA GOLD AND LIGHT BRIGADE, WHO GAVE US A CHANCE TO PURCHACE PERCUSSION EGUIPMENT AND A TRUCK. WE'VE DONE SOME PARADES AND FUNDRAISERS TO BUY SOME BRASS,AND WITH OUR CURRENT NUMBERS BEING WHAT THEY ARE,THE MINIS SEEMED LIKE THE THING TO DO.OVER THE WINTER WE PLAN TO HAVE A WINTER GUARD AND PERCUSSION UNIT.THEN MAYBE FIELD A COMPETATIVE DCA CORPS NEXT SUMMER. THINGS ARE STARTING TO ROLL FOR US SO WITH A GOOD SHOWING IN THE MINIS,HOPEFULLY WE CAN TAKE THAT NEXT STEP IN OUR PLAN RE-BUILT THE IMPERIALS BACK INTO A WORTHY FIELD COMPETATIVE CORPS. SO WHATEVER WE DO IN SCRANTON BE IT GOOD OR BAD,WE'LL KNOW WE'VE MADE IT BACK INTO THE FIELD OF COMPETITION.28 YEARS IS WAY TO LONG TO NOT TO HAVE OUR PROUD CORPS AROUND!

There are rumors about The "Blouseman" coming back.

A short time ago I was in East Strausburg. The "Blouseman" representatives had initially planned on bringing their Contra Line to the Minicorps competition. After I told them about the rule stating a maximum of 21 performing members, they got ######. I was informed that the plan was to bring their full Contra line. It was decided though, that they were not going to accept penalty points or disqualification due to having too many performing players. I suggested to have the remaining Contra's hang out on the sideline until the Encore. Their reply was:

"BULL_ _ _ _!!"

Since the "Blouseman" are a different breed of people, I didn't want to argue.

(more info later)
