This was so fun to do. :)

Yeee!!!

Thanks to all who came to the show. We had a BLAST! 7

Thanks to all who are stepping up to support us this season! Your donations have been making a major difference to our season. If you would still just to spare five bucks to support the Renegades, we're still accepting much needed donations!

You have five bucks you can donate to the cause? Thanks. :)

From Rich’s parents Sylvia and Gordon: We are currently working on a memorial service for Richard. We are awaiting the arrival of Rich’s brother Russell who will help to make Rich’s service very special and I’m sure that Russell will contact some of Rich’s friends to participate. We have arranged for a beautiful array of flowers for Rich. We ask all of Richard’s friends and family to remember us through their thoughts and prayers in lieu of flowers, especially in these hard economic times. We are planning a reception and are working on time and place (will be rsvp). We will continue to post updates as they develop. It brings us much joy to know Rich had so many friends and was so well liked. Thank you all and we looking forward to meeting you and seeing again those that we have met before. Sylvia and Gordon Skare Memorial Service: Date: December 11th, 2010 Time: 1:00PM Location: Chapel of the Oaks Oak Hill Funeral Home 300 Curtner Avenue San Jose, California

Looking at the recap/scores from our Stanford envelope: FINAL SCORE 66.963

Uhmm... For the record: Mark, I emailed and corresponded with Rob Gibson in regards to his horn. I am not at liberty to divulge all of his business on a public forum. Though, I will mention that after investigating the whereabouts of his horn, I can honestly (and in relief) say it's not entirely my fault and is something I can blame and pursue retribution from the postal annex in Berkeley I used to send his horn. We sent it, oh yes we did. We have not found a resolution to the issue yet, but you sure as hell can bet that I've been in contact with all parties to rectify the issue. (ESPECIALLY because we received his payment. I'm not interesting in screwing over anyone for their money, especially in such a public arena. I mean, who does that?? Not me.) Regarding not emailing someone back... I apologize for the inconvenience. Since posting that we have horns available for sale (at such a low cost), I have encountered a truckload of emails from potential buyers-- all of which I am sorting through inquiries in chronological order to make sure everyone's got a fair shot at the horns. This is an extremely slow process. I'm sorry if I haven't gotten back to you. With our horns marked "priced to sell," it's been an absolute mad house. If you're willing to wait long enough, you'll find that for the price we sell our horns for...is worth the wait. We'll get to you. Please understand that this may take a while if it wasn't possible for you to jump on the forum at the very day we initially posted the ad. We are not a corporation. We are also not a drum corps of lineage that has an army of parent alumnis who can spend all day answering emails and sending horns in the middle of the workday. In reality, we are an all-age drum corps who is trying to make it through these really tough economical times, and we're proud that we're still around and excited about being able to still field a show this season. If you're someone who can't understand that, that's perfectly fine. There are some who do understand and support endeavors like this one. It's enough to drive our small admin staff to keep working. (And thanks for the support, BTW. Don't you dare think we don't notice. You people are our lifeline and drive us to exist.) In regards to reading these very disappointing messages, I am genuinely apologetic. We will work HARDER to make sure to (at least) communicate that we won't get back to you in (possibly) weeks. If you are reading this and have not been tainted by these really negative posts, please do not message me on this forum. Instead email me directly at my corps email, lolita@renegades.org. I will not, and have not respond to any PMs or Facebook messages. (I do not check these messages at all, and I value my personal privacy on Facebook. Please, do not stalk me. I won't bother stalking or messaging you either. ...Let's face it, we're not exactly close.) Moving forward, if you are reading this and HAVE heard from me regarding buying a horn, please don't be scared off. We are doing our best, with the labor resources that we have to communicate with you. We're honest people, regardless of what you think of our Evil persona. We aren't interested in screwing you for your money-- At least I'm positive that I am not... and I'm just the ONLY one orchestrating these sales. Thank you for your past comments and I hope to meet all of you one day in Rochester. Thanks, Lolita Tabujara Assist. Corps Director lolita@renegades.org

Please email info@renegades.org for more details on how to join the 2009 SF Renegades Drum & Bugle Corps. www.renegades.org 7 -- A little excerpt for you:

Bump.

I can't wait!! It's probably NOT going to rain this year!! WOO-HOO!!!!! :) See you wearing a thin red Mandarin top (same as last year) and white DM gloves, L.T.

Bumpity bump bump BUMP!!

....AAAANNNNNNDDDDDDD... BUMP!!

Word. Maybe even theme the Renegades After-Party after Crunchy w/ a special performance? Just a thought. ...I hope there's still going to be an Anthrax Ripple sequel though. It was crazy, attracted crowds, tons of fun, technically difficult... And missed first place. (Respectfully by another Renegades group. ) Time to put the dukes up again... We're not done yet... A worthy successor .....SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol Thay-ng-kah yew, Key-thhh!! Loh-vuh, Low

My first year of marching drum corps was in 05, Renegade Baritone. I have never marching drum corps in my life. Marching band, yes but no where near as competitive. I did it for 05-06. This past year, I joined the colorguard. Never done it before. Loved it. Even had the opportunity to do a short solo in the opener. Dude... You should try it. You'll have the best time ever. ^0^
