Saw a sad sight today in Ft. Myers, FL


Recommended Posts

I was traveling in Ft. Myers today and drove past a flea market with a few old abandoned vehicles in the lot. I had to take a double look when I saw the Kiwanis Kavaliers semi sitting there. I pulled in and shot a picture of the old kitchen truck and souvie trailer sitting there almost as if they were ready for a show. It was sad to see it there in the lot quiet and left behind while I know many others are traveling around the country right now entertaining thousands with good ol' drum corps. If you were a part of this great corps I thought you might like to see the trucks.

Sigh...the kavaliers hold one of my favorite drum corps memories. I was at a show, having not really followed corps much that year, and I saw this corps wearing all black with this crazy facemask ninja things on...and I was like WHOAAA, that must suck to march with....

:worthy:

Thanks for the pic. My son marched '04 & '05 with KK. I believe that is the equipment truck, and not the kitchen. I cooked many a meal in there. Sad, it was a really good organization and gave my son his start in drum corp.

Am I allowed to ask if the stolen equipment was ever recovered?

I don't believe it ever was.

Now that IS sad.

For a minute, since I read "Ft Myers" I was hoping you'd passed a fatal car crash and saw my old employer's body staining the road in at least 3 pieces.

But what you reported actually is sad........................here's a toast to the Kiwanis Kavaliers (clink)

So are they up for sale or with the trailers just sit and rot like so many others have through the years ?
