For those who don’t know why there’s only around three bands that participate, here’s why: It’s a small area. I should know because I live relatively close. When I go to the pride of the northwest comp in grants pass, there’s never a band from Ashland (that I know of). There also isn’t a lot of opportunities for people who live in the Pacific Northwest. Of all people, I would know. I live in a small town called Crescent City and it’s right by the Oregon boarder in California. I’m in the only school marching band in Del Norte and Humboldt county. This last year, my band taught a few members of the Brookings harbor High band in Brookings, OR (20-35 mins away from CC) how to march, how to read drill, and they performed with us at 2 competitions. We’re not a great band but we gave them a marching experience that they wouldn’t have gotten otherwise. If you don’t expose people to new things they’ll never know the full possibilities of what they can do. posted from the DrumScorps app
