Just wanted to post my 2-cents worth after viewing the last 50+ pages on this thread. I thought this thread was about the Cadets going inactive for the 2024 season?? 95% of what I read is people b****ing back and forth about props, uniforms, buses, touring, staff, etc and their effects on this activity. Nothing to do about the Cadets going inactive for 2024. We should be posting about how sad it is that we have lost another "family" member. None of you, I assume, are on the Cadets Board or staff (or any corps for that matter) and have inside information to back up your "expertise" about the demise of the Cadets and the activity as a whole. In my opinion arguing and being nasty towards each other (and some of you have been quite nasty) here on DCP will not solve this problem. What I've read here is not healthy and not going to solve the issues facing this activity. Let's get back to talking about the Cadets!!
