Excelsior PR Manager Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 (edited) A solid start to what will be a great year! Next: November 18th = "Brass Musicians Workshop!" with Featured Instructor Joey Pero Jr and visiting low brass specialist Anthony Giles. This day is a 5 hour brass clinic for both Bb and G horns and ALL are welcomed. There is a nominal fee for this workshop, but anyone who does march with EXCELSIOR in 2008 will have the fee applied to the membership dues. Food will be served. Pre-registration is required at www.EVPAA.org. Thank you. Even if you are already committed to another corps or have decided not to march this season, this workshop will be a good opportunity to enhance your technique and keep your chops sharp! Come out and play! November 23, 24, 25 = Open House/First Camp. This is the real kick off to the new season...the full corps will hold a camp weekend rehearsal and dig in to the 2008 competitive show..."Robin Hood-a field production" Anyone interested in joining us for this camp weekend, (or to just get info on the corps) please email the below contacts. rides can be arranged.

Excelsior PR Manager Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 (edited) What a great year for DCA drum corps. So many new projects starting up and the hype is soooo high! I love this stuff. Excelsior is really excited about this new challenge. Moving up to a competitive field corps from a parade corps is a HUGE jump and we are having a blast doing it! So far, so good! With the Turkey Day celebrations happening this week, I just wanted to take a moment to give thanks to everyone who have offered there support and/or given Excelsior a bit of their time along the way. Thank You! Edited November 20, 2007 by Excelsior PR Manager Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
