Thanks, Jake. One of our design team's main goals for the 2017 production was to really stretch into some uncharted musical and visual spaces for the corps. So glad you enjoyed! And enjoy the rest of the week - SO MANY amazing shows this year! -

I suspect this is the big engine underneath all of the other important factors that have been brought up in this thread. But whatever the reason, hooray for drum corps!

Dear Mr. Acheson...

"But that's us. We're already fans, and we're not the ones I'm interested in." And that is the crux of the matter. -
For my .02, one of the most interesting, thoughtful and effective looking updates in the past 10 years. Can't wait to see them on the field.

Santa Clara Vanguard 2013
rbripley replied to FaustianMachine's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
And there's this... -
Without a doubt, marching drum corps is one of the most beneficial and enjoyable things I've ever done (and this was more than two decades ago!). My only real advice: 1. Plan ahead financially - work now and put away money for winter camps and summer; and 2. Try out for the corps that makes you stand up and cheer, in whose uniform you imagine yourself performing; and 2. Do it.

The Vanguard Cadets 3 three drivers for our kitchen box truck, support staff motor home and staff van for our Pacific Northwest Tour through DCI Finals. All three vehicles only require a regular, Class C driver's license and a clean driving record. This year, the Vanguard Cadets tour begins on July 23 taking the corps to the beautiful Pacific Northwest and continuing to Southern California for the DCI World Championships in Pasadena; finally ending back in Santa Clara on August 12. If you are unable to commit to the entire journey, we are willing split any of these jobs into two halves, from July 24 through August 4 and August 4 through August 12. The jobs are on a volunteer basis, but while you're with us we'll provide great food, housing, transportation, fun, and of course free entertainment - the Santa Clara Vanguard Cadets Drum & Bugle Corps! If you can volunteer or know of someone who can, please contact Dan Vannatta at (408) 727-5532 x10 or via email at dvannatta@scvanguard.org or corps director Rob Ripley at (323) 314-2947 or rripley@scvanguard.org. We hope you can join us!
