I am looking for action photographs of the K-W Lions Northstars. I have a few from a few friends but I would like to add a lot more if I can find them. I would appreciate any that you could send me at r.dunnington@rogers.com Thanks.

I'd like to see Madison try an all Malaguena show. Play one song, the whole show !!! Hopefully they are daring enough to try that !!

My predictions for 2014 are as follows. 1. Santa Clara Vanguard 2. Carolina Crown 3. Blue Devils 4. Bluecoats 5 The CADETS 6. Phantom Regiment 7. Madison Scouts 8. Cavaliers 9. Boston Crusaders 10. Blue Knights If these are the final standings no one will be more surprized than me !!! WE'LL SEE !!!

Although we have recruited a few new members and will be doing regular rehearsals starting in September. Spot in the Dream Seekers are still open to those with special needs.

There is a new guard in the Kitchener-Waterloo area !!! However, they will offer no competition to the Ventures Winter Guard in any way. This guard is called "The Dream Seekers Special Needs Colour Guard" and is ONLY open to K-W youth from 14-25 living with a life challenge !!! This guard was started by alumni of the Dutch Boy Drum Corps back in July. In their first year of exhibition the Dream Seekers will be doing shows in the central Ontario region only. The membership will be around 10 marchers and using basically flags. Rifles and sabres will be added when the staff sees fit. This is the 1st Special Needs Colour Guard in CANADA and will be the base unit for many more special needs guards in the future. The guard colours will be black, white and blue. The guard already has three bookings for the spring time and are quite anxious to get started on Tuesday October 1, 2013

I guess so.

The Northstar Youth Organization, the parent company of the Dutch Boy Drum Corps of the past, is coming out with an 80 member unit. The MARCHING BAND will be called NORTHSTAR BAND, using all the instrumentation of a marching band. Although the alumni are disappointed with this move, it is in the best interest of the kids in the community.It keeps the kids in the community busy and it gives the city their own band.

I will always have fond memories of North Tonawanda Keith !!! Hopefully we'll meet up sometime in the future !! I haven't been on here for a while for the same reasons Keith....too bad !!

There would be thousands of people in CANADA TOO !!!!

I have been excited by numerous APRIL FOOLS JOKES put on DCP over the years. I am a alumnus of Dutch Boy and I realize this was in poor taste. Please except my apology.

Where the hell did you hear this ?

To my fellow drum corps alumni !! I meant no disrespect to the Dutch Boy Drum Corps or to any one who marched in the corps. I have spent many years both in the corps and as a volunteer. I bleed Dutch Boy red, white and black. Nobody more than me would love to see them back on the field. My apologies to those that were excited by this only to have your hopes dashed by a senseless APRIL FOOLS JOKE !!!

Anybody heard what is going on in Kitchener-Waterloo with Dutch Boy ? I haven't seen or heard of them in years !!! Are they still marching or did they fold all together !!!

That's on line I'd never thought I hear about in drum corps !!!
