Imperial Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Wonderful! i used to march in Burlington mass with the Citations. SO about the same area? i shall be exploring your website. Well, they are slightly northwest of Boston. We are directly south of it. You would come right through Boston, so, I hate to inform you that it would be an extra 25 minutes over Burlington. But check us out and email me if you wish. I can give you more particulars. email: pathway500@yahoo.com Thanks John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManchesterMuchacho Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 hey all. ive been doing something with Drum corps since 2002 doing a parade corps up here in maine for 4 years then Citations in Mass in 2007 and finally Spartans in 2008. Im looking for somewhere to take me into thier corps family. I work full time and have a family so im not looking for like my DCI days. Some place fun and friendly any ideas? Thanks everyone for reading this!PS help with a ride would be great and my true dream someday is to be part of the blue team, but not this very day as my distance is a big burden! Thanks! Derek Pellerin Derek, My suggestion is to come to one of our rehearsals, and try out us and any other corps you may be thinking about. You'll understand the commute and get a 'feel' on how the corps operates, how the staff run rehearsals and what they are about etc... Then make your decision. As was mentioned by someone else, we are growing and this year is looking to be great and the best in recent memory. There's a lot of stuff going on that has not been announced yet. Stay tuned for more info. We had some Maniacs, but they are in the a-line now and don't come to every rehearsal, but we do have someone from the Seacoast so you might be able to cut down some of your drive time.

G-horns Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I agree with Dave from Muchachos. Check out a few possibilities before you make a commitment. If you have a family, you'll want to consider the impact on everyone. Driving 3 hours each way for a three hour rehearsal isn't like driving that distance for a weekend camp. The former makes for at least a 9 hour day and when you add in social time, you're looking at 10 to 12 hours. Plus, if the corps rehearses during the week your drive time might not mesh with your work schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muchachos seem to be great ive met a few people from there, and actually one of the support staff members last summer at spartans is a member. ive heard alot of good!

MiniSopGuy Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hey Derek, Move your family out of that cold frozen state of Maine and come to sunny and warm SoCal. Then you can march with SoCal Dream. Haha! You have so many options of quality programs to march with back there, check out as many as you can and get to know people in the organization. Then make the decision which drum corps family you want to be adopted by. Good luck and where ever you end up, have fun and enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest thing is finding a ride so its not like a 5 hour drive for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
