bspeakman Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Are there gatherings scheduled to watch the ESPN broadcast? Now that it is on the "hard" schedule of a major network, with a firm time, it would be great to gather with other drum corps fans to watch together. This could be especially true at colleges and universities, where members from several corps may attend, but may not know each other. Why not a drum corps interest club at your school? A great way to get to know each other and talk over the season AND to invite prospective fans and members into the "Inside scoop" on todays drum corps activity. Corps members are the best PR tool that DCI has...but often, we keep the secret of how great this activity is to ourselves. Lets' find new and better ways to spread the word on our campuses and in our high schools.. As a long, long ago age out and a more recent board member, employee and most recently admin staff member of a major corps, I am always pleasantly surprised to meet members of other corps here at Penn State. Cross-corps discussions are always interesting and enlightening. I am also surprised that, more often than not, they are not aware of the other corps members on campus, ulless they march with them somewhere. So, call your friends and set up a get-together..invite people with whom you want to share your passion for drum corps and turn up the volume. If are at or near Penn State, we will be watching at my Inn in Boalsburg...in Dolby 5.1 on a 60" screen.....stop by and say hello... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommySopranoContra Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Well I'm not in college yet. But my entire corps are DCI addicts. For two months we've been watching DCI videos in lunch everyday. And we had a big party when the Cadets won :) (all 135 of us at my house). And We go back to school Sept 7, and Sept 6, mind as well party and watch that too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
