I believe at some point their staff walked and then a fire destroyed their hall and equipment ... not sure of the details but they somehow made the field in 73 with a super small corps

As far as I know, Carman Cluna was opposed to the concept of DCI and rallied against it ... St Rita's packed it in after the 73 season with a VERY good corps ... BS was a shell of itself by 1972 ... I saw them at a show in Rutgers and was stunned ... not sure when they packed it in that year ... Some members went over to the Polish Falcons and then BS formed a Sr corps in 75 ... that lasted one season ... They now have a thriving Alumni Corps ...

So, I checked with several Hurcs and other CT dc people and none of them remember a show at Yale ... however, all remember the Hurcs show being held at Bowen Field those years, which is also in New Haven

I don't remember a show being held at the Yale Bowl ... any details? Thanks

Yeah ... I went to HS in Bpt with Bob ... visited his museum in SC on our road to FL ... thanks for the suggestion ... 🙂

Do you still have any albums? Cliff Richmond said the recaps were on the back of the 65 WO record ...

I need the recaps from the 1965 WO held in Bridgeport CT ... Prelims and/or Finals ... anything would be appreciated ... do not know if they were published in DCN ... Northern Thunder ... can you help?

Hopping over the GW Bridge from da Bronx to NJ, let's give our just do to Newark Schools Stadium, which played host to a show just about every weekend ... many Penn-Jersey, Garden State and GNYC shows ...

Since we're touring the burroughs, I must pay homage to Gaelic Park in the Bronx ... host to a myriad of GNYC & Open shows ...

I mentioned it earlier along with Kennedy Stadium in Bpt

Kennedy Stadium Bridgeport CT ... Roosevelt Stadium Jersey City ...

Beyond Hawthorne's absence, I was disappointed that Archie, Baltimore, I-men and Hurricane's were absent ... but ... Make no mistake ... It was a GREAT two days of drum corps at its finest ...

1969 Boston

ND-ettes ... WO Champs 69, 70

Bill was also a Charter Member of the Garbarina Skyliners ...

The more I read, the more I learn

Those were the two corps that I heard hooked up with Skokie to vault them into top flight in 65 ... the aforementioned Viscounts lasted through 67

I always thought it was McHenry but someone corrected me and now I can't remember the Corps name ...

What corps merged to turn the Skokie Vanguard into a powerhouse fro 65 on? I just can't remember ...

I know this is not a DCI request but, maybe Brian Tolzman (Northern Thunder) has these recap scores in his archives ... Thanks
