Very exciting. I've seen nothing but good things come from Cadets in the last few months.

Statement from Cadets about Covid-19 and the separation from YEA. https://yea.org/cadets/covid-19

This debate about 501c3, whether they can fundraise, whether your donation is tax deductible, where their board is, Etc. is just odd to me. They are not operating as their own organization yet. That’s not until March 31. 501c3 is YEA right now. Board is YEA right now. Donations are tax deductible right now. They can fundraise and you can donate - and write it off. They said all of these details would be complete by March 31 when they transition. Why are we still talking about this? Am I missing something?

I don't think that's technically correct. I think they raised money but it was probably all spent on debt and crap, resulting in the generous person stepping in. My two cents.

I mean.. maybe? But they also said they raised a ton of money last year so why change it if it ain't broke? They really should be looking at new ways of raising money in addition to what they're already doing.

LOL ok funny but... my email didn't ask for money. It was actually well written and excited to hear the corps is having a great winter!

Simmer down. It's not only the 85th anniversary of the corps this year, it's also the 50th anniversary of when the corps allowed women.. so it makes sense to me that they're talking about it. Jeez.

Looks like a good weekend in Cadetland. Nice video in article. https://yea.org/news/homecoming-hall-fame-recap?fbclid=IwAR3o3nVfpGFj7CxcRZFLtxdf2k6dUIzGIsrrnJi55SYioJ_Sq2Haa1fVigY

Yes, you can rewatch the brass & guard webinars at live.cadets.org In other news..... Greg Lagola is at Cadets now?!? 😧 😍 Source: https://yea.org/cadets/staff

the show was cancelled because of the Hurricane

Back to our regularly scheduled program.... Cadets full brass staff announced: https://yea.org/cadets/staff Other captions being announced live next week at live.cadets.org.

I agree that Darcie could hold them back again. I heard a rumor that other big names were unannounced (possibly still in contract negotiations) and are being brought in to work with her so she doesn't go rogue again. Fingers crossed...

I heard that others who were unnamed (contract negotiations still in progress maybe?) will be coming in to work with her. She won't be allowed to go rogue again.

I imagine it going something like this: April: Hey you’re on my color guard staff. Staffer: I wish I could bu.. April: DID I STUTTER?! Staffer: Yes ma’am

Haha. True, I might open the wallet up a little..

It is kinda cool to hear from everyone in the article.

It is cool to hear from everyone in the recording in the article.

Well... maybe it was a premature release and there's still hope! 🤓

Someone must be watching here LOL. Cadets2 has since been removed from that page

cadets.org literally has a countdown timer to midnight! LOL I love it

cadets.org literally has a countdown clock LOL I love it

Agreed. We'll find out in a few hours if rumors hold true but if they do, I think this staff has a lot to bring. Now, they just need to attract the talent to BRING IT.

It's a DCI rule that corps have to wait until after Labor Day...
