#1 is the former Director of Sky's Alumni ... he also marched with Sun & Sky's field corps ... Bayonne bred, but never a Bridgemen ... boxing aficionado ... all around great ... could this be the Dream Ressurection Team?

:-)

#2 was also a member of Sky field corps, right hand man for #1 while with Sky Alumni, was a co-director with the field corps for a while, got very involved with DCA management.

#3 was a looong time member of Reading and a member of Sky Alumni for a few years. Good, reliable and loyal member with a head full of drum corps history between his ears!

#4 played with Cabs for some years and was NOT a member of Sky Alumni.

So, the common thread here is NOT the Skyliners Alumni, but the fact that each of these men marched competitively in the National Dream Contest for a LOT of years.

Photo looks like it was taken to commemorate the announcement of the return of the Dream Contest while at the WDCHoF Indoor Show held at Bergenfield High School some years back.

The obvious choice for photographer would be Tony White, but I'm going to guess the one and only Moe Knox!

How'd I do???

You could be spot on Al. I know on the far right is Dave Barth. He played tymps etc etc for the Cabs and was involved in the resurrection of the Dream.

CHECK! (Also marched with the Sunrisers...)

To complete the assignment we'll need all 4 names...

"Who", Left to right (Would you like to name names?)

"Where" (You got that!)

"When" (Do you remember the year?)

and for a bonus, Who took this photo (CHECK!: The one and ONLY Maurice D. Knox Jr.!)

This photo is from our Queen's collection by the way...

Sure Tony... Donnie Sollinger (think 2 ls')....

Also played Contra in the 90s when the Buccs were having a less than successful season. Picked him out in the vid...

And since we just survived another Fall Meet (Antique Auto Club of America) week in Hershey, PA. Donnie also has a pic of the Buccs original(?) equipment truck... it was a modified used hearse. :wow: Pic was in the HoDC write up....

Scott Yaniga, Glen Johnson, Donnie Solinger and Dave Barth. I think it was '98 or '99, not sure.

WooHoo!! (1999)

Yes! This resurrection of the "DREAM" team is Scott Yaniga, Glen Johnson, Donnie Solinger and Dave Barth. This was taken on May 8th, 1999 at the Bergenfield, NJ High School by Moe Knox!

THANKS for playing!
