I am not sure, maybe Tom Peashey can step up and clarify, but I do not believe that if Kidsgrove finishes in top 10 that they knock a perennial DCA voting member out of tenth spot. Basically, there are 10 DCA Open Class corps, no matter where Kidsgrove finishes the top 10 DCA corps get in. HOWEVER, again no sure. Tom, if you please. Doug Smith

I just thought seeing as how it is now June 1st, that the corps that had to declare what division they were in, that the list would have been put on-line by now. I am sure Tom once you read this, you will say who declared what. Doug Smith

No, John, your right, I am wrong. Oh can't believe I said that. The corps has a camp in Smith Falls, that weekend, however, as you say, things could change. Doug Smith

Would probably be a great show, however, with Fusion Core, and Grenadiers being in Massachusetts that weekend, unfortunately it is unlikely they could be in two places at one time. Doug Smith

COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF. Doug Smith Proud Grenadier Alumnus

Hey, DD, we have the feelers out for the Baritone and the Contra spot, some good interest so hopefully by Saturday am, those spots will too be filled. THEN WE ARE DONE wooohooo Doug Smith

Yes, it is aggressive, but the hornline sounds great playing it. Doug Smith Kingston Grenadiers Alumni

Kingston Grenadiers had their final indoor Music camp for 2010. The motto for the weekend was CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN. The guard joined us for the first time, and it was great to see all those smiley faces. All facets of the corps are running on all cylinders. "WITHOUT WARNING" is going to be just an awesome show, from beginning to end. The corps looks forward to seeing everyone at the beginning of the season, and wishes everyone all the best. They look forward to seeing everyone on Labor Day, so if you plan on being in Rochester, NY on Labor Day come over and say hi, to the corps staff, management, and members, but hang on tight, cause they will take you "INTO THE STORM" Doug Smith Proud Kingston Grenadier Alumnus

Geoff, it is my understanding that a voting open class corps cannot be knocked out of FINALS, however, I could be wrong. I am sure Tom will let us know. Too bad about MCL

BosMarcher, I won't question your picks for CLASS A, I will just question the order. You will probably have all four of those corps near the top, execution and shows during the season are going to make the difference. There is one corps you have mentioned that will see the judges more than the other three, so they will have the edge. I am a Grenadier Alumnus, so they are my pick, but then again, I have been known to be wrong before. Doug Smith

This is a tough one. Class A, has been getting better and better every year for the past 3-4 years. With it being two months until the first show, it is tough to guess who might take it, but you will probably have the same corps on top again, in no specific order Govenaires Grenadiers Vigilantes Sun Devils Carolina God Again, with no having a show as of yet, this is just speculation.

GREAT VIDEO Scott, the music is awesome. Everyone be there. There is a STORM brewing in Alexandria Bay, NY on the 6th and 7th of Feb. BE THERE. Doug Smith Proud Alumnus

Great job Scott. The new video is awesome. So come on up to Canada, and enjoy some Canadian hospitality, and some Canadian fun. The show WITHOUT WARNING is coming to DCA in 2010 Doug Smith

DD, we have sent letters to Tim Horton's, and to White Mountain, to let them know you are coming. I believe that White Mountain is coming out with a flavor just for Glenn, PA Pizazz. Welcome back to Canada, Drum corps in Canada just heated up a bit more. Doug Smith

Looks like a whole new musical direction for the Grenadiers. Good luck moving forward into your 51st year. May you enjoy another 50 years. If you wish to march the Kingston Grenadiers in 2010, come on out to Ernestown Secondary School, on the 28th,29th of November. You won't regret it, GREAT CORPS, GREAT STAFF, EVEN GREATER PEOPLE.

What a great choice gentleman. I have heard some of the opener. WOW Doug Smith

GRENADIERS 2010-WOO HOO

I wasn't aware that you moved to Ontario or Northern NY. but you know me If I can help I will. The best I can do is once again offer mine and Suzanne's hospitality for that weekend. We can certainly make sure Tim Horton's and White Mountain are on the menu. Doug Smith

Well said Roo. Looks like your pit family has grown to major proportions. Roo, is right, if you are considering any type of drum corps this season, and you live in Ontario, northern New York, check out the Kingston Grenadiers. Next camp Nov 28th, 29th, for more information feel free to go to www.kingstongrenadiers.com If transportation is an issue feel free to email me at dsmith1311@cogeco.ca we can probably hook you up GRENADIERS 2010, the only place to be

There are GREAT THINGS happening in the land of MOLSON, oops Canada I mean. Come on out to the first camp of 2010, Oct 31st, November 1st

Your right Adam, wait until next week, when they announce the other half of the staff. Doug Smith

Jeff, you did a tremendous job, as did the DCP staff. Live Feed for 2010. I would pay for that, and I would pay good money for that. Again, great job, and here's to next year. Doug Smith
