traveller30 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 That's interesting. I talked to Dave Kampschroer (they guy who does the evaluations) and he has heard nothing of it.... Hang on, you dropped something there. Let me pick that up for you… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentDark Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 (edited) There is no "petition" process any longer. It is a DCI evaluation. DCI randomly evaluates some corps and their books, membership, etc., each year. Also, DCI evaluates emerging and re-emerging corps. Capital Regiment would be in that final category...re-emerging. At the end of the evaluation, DCI makes their reccommendation. For instance, DCI made reccommendations to both Academy and Jurf for World Class status a year before each of these corps actually decided to go into World Class. I was at the camp and Rick said this to all of us including the parents. I would highly doubt he would lie to us. He told us that DCI re-evaluates all the corps, but when a corps is returning or wants to be re-evaluated, they are pushed to the top of the pile and are dealt with first. It would be hard to believe CR would be trying to coming back without contacting DCI to get back into DCI. Whats the point in that? Someone tell me please.

Carld Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Just to clarify a few things. Capital Regiment has talked to DCI and is currently going through the evaluation process. We have sent in the information requested from DCI and have already had one visit in Columbus from a member of the evaluation committee. The camp went very well. We need more horns and guard. I have had many emails and phone calls since camp, I suspect we will more than double both horn and guard numbers at the December camp. Keep on the look out for a bus ride from Virginia Beach!! WE have a great staff of educators and a great group of young adults who are going to help us put Capital Regiment back on the field!! Keep the Faith Respectfully Yours Carl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone wants to see Capital Regiment be successful. The comments and concerns that have been posted about Capital are legitimate. I don't know anyone that has a beef with CR. Instead, they have a beef with their director (Rick Bays) for how he managed the corps and treated the staff and volunteers in 2006. Everyone wants to see them come back, but even more people want to see them provide a healthy and stable environment for its members. I hope they can do so this summer.

audiodb Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Yeah, we get that. But we have other threads already where those concerns are under discussion. Why reiterate them in every single thread about the corps? I recall a time when the Cadets were particularly beleagured with criticism concerning their show design choices, and the moderators directed all such criticism to one thread so that a thread for positive Cadets content could exist. Mods, can we do the same for Capital Regiment, please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mods, can we do the same for Capital Regiment, please? I just did a quick search. This is the only thread in at least the top three pages that mentions the administrative concerns. There are numerous recent threads that on here about Capital Regiment and only one of them (this one) has referenced their problems in 2006.
