truenorthdc Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 (edited) Web site is now steeltownbrass.org but nothing has been added since February when the corps went on hold to prepare for re-entering field competition in 2009. You should start seeing new information on the site aprox mid Sept and thereafter. I am presently involved in collecting names of potential new members for the fall and my target is 80 to 85 members for this fall. If you need more information you can contact me at stbrass@yahoo.com Thanks for your continued interest in the Bandettes organization and Steel Town Brass (co-ed) Drum & Bugle Corps.
