We all know the risks we took when we declaired Open Class. Reality is DCA will not open it up to the top 12 for finals night. Why? Because they have clairifired from the get go 10 will only be going on Sunday night. Also the three top A class corps. This is what a championship show should be. I truly wish I had a 100+ drumcorps and im sure there are many out there that feel the same way. Sometimes it's not in the card no matter how hard you try. Grenadiers are going to do there best to go out and perform and make the Sunday night show, and if we don't then we will be watching 10 other corps that where seen to be better than us. I also think that getting a corps to finals is victory in itself, big or small, open or A-Class, Alumni or mini-corps we are an activity thats one of a kind, a "family" thats what Finals are about to Grenadiers so no matter what we all win. So good luck to all. Randy Billings
