HornsUp Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 (edited) My family has been involved in Drum Corps since the 1950's when my brother marched....I'm sorry, I don't know who he marched for, was a corps out of LaCrosse Wisconsin, might have been the Legion or VFW ???? Probably the Blackhawks, a junior corps who eventually were eclipsed by the Blue Stars. Possibly the LaCrosse Commanders senior corps, sponsored by the Heileman brewery and affiliated with the American Legion post. There was also a junior corps, the Applearrows, across the river in LaCrescent MN. The Blue Stars website says the Applearrows merged with the Blue Stars colorguard to form their corps.

Kitty Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Hey there! My name is Kitty and I'm 17. I'm from Jersey. This past season I marched for the Bushwackers. I was in the cymbal line. I'm actually going to get another DCA year under my belt before I go looking at Junior Corps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanmoran Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I'm Sean. I've enjoyed reading the interesting exchanges on these forums for a while and finally decided to register. I marched with the San Diego Earthquake in 1998 for the California tour. The last weekend of the Cali tour I was informed that the Blue Devils had a Euph spot open. I auditioned in the parking lot at San Jose, made the corps, and hopped on the bus for Nats tour with 3 days worth of clothes. After taking 1999 off (my biggest regret in life to date), I marched from 2000-2002 and aged out a Blue Devil. I became a visual tech for Esperanza in 2004 and worked with that corps until they went inactive in 2007. This summer (2009) I will be a visual tech with the Madison Scouts and hope to continue teaching for many years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
