I did not post ths topic to bash or bad mouth the people who did not march. Many corps have folded due to the lack of interest in membership. I am just trying to figure out why people are not marching. Many people have injuries, family issues, and money problems that are all very understandable. Others may think they are not good enough and never try. I know there are corps out there right now with open spots, some that are even in the top 12. They are just waiting for some one to stop reading posts on the internet about drum corps and march in those open spots.
