Puppet Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 It's the term everyone uses for the membership agreements these days. Too many legal shows on TV, I guess. Thanks, Dave. I think I was channeling Steve Colbert there for a minute. On second reading, though - in the light of day - it was kind of funny ... I think.

jonnyboy Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 The record for the Crossmen is Kim Robinson, daughter of corps founders Robbie and Charlotte Robinson. She marched 11 seasons of color guard 1975-1985, if I remember correctly. Second place goes to Becky Terry: 9 seasons of mello and drum major 1997-2005. Carolyn Pierantozzi, Crossmen mello 81-88. I think she did a few seasons in the short lived feeder corps Iron Cross? According to Corpsreps, Iron Cross fielded a corps in 79 and 80. I was thinking Carolyn had 12 or 13 years total but that would make it 10 max. I only recall this because she had finals/semis patches all the way down her corps jacket sleave!

dcf06 Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Its scary to think that if I would have taken Greg Orwoll up on his offer in 1998 I would have been marching a total of 12 years this year. If I was marching my age out it would have been 6 years. 9 if I would have marched 01 to 09. Wow I am going to miss Drum corps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_G Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 We had a Euph, Kassi, that started at Spirit the same year I did. She aged out in 07 I believe. I want to say there may have been one or two that were around for somewhere close to that long back in the 80s, Hunter Moss maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkbench Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Here is snapshot from past year Cavalier alumni drumline which is fairly representative of whole corps make-up. Cavies tend to see guys average around 3-5 years. BUT, many folks marched at least a few years elsewhere as well. Early years also had guys (in our case) whom were with cadet or 'B' corps. 2008 Cavalier Anniversary Alumni Corps -- Drumline Names removed for public domain Snare Years Marched 9 1968 1969 1970 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 8 1966 1967 1968 1969 1970 1971 1972 1974 5 1969 1970 1971 1972 1975 4 1969 1970 1971 1972 4 1970 1972 1973 1974 4 1993 1994 1995 1996 3 1974 1975 1976 3 1983 1984 1985 3 1964 1966 1967 3 1977 1978 1980 3 1970 1971 1972 2 1983 1985 2 1985 1986 1 1979 1 1972 1 1981 Tenor 10 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1984 5 1955 1956 1957 1958 1959 2 1980 1981 2 1984 1985 2 1980 1981 Bass 6 1968 1969 1970 1971 1972 1973 2 1975 1976 5 1970 1971 1972 1973 1974 2 2000 2001 Cymbals 7 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 5 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 4 1974 1975 1976 1977 3 1961 1962 1963 1 1970 1 1957 Pit 8 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 4 1977 1978 1979 1980 3 1975 1976 1977 2 1977 1978 1 1982 1 2001 Total 132 Total Years Represented ..... 50's 8 3.6 Average Years Marched ...... 60's 18 1.0 Minimum Years Marched ..... 70's 81 10.0 Maximum Years Marched .... 80's 45 1955 Earliest Membership Year ... 90's 9 2002 Latest Membership Year ..... 00's 7 (1972 & 1974 most represented year's) This didn't format in colorful Excel table as intended, sorry.

nineiron Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 Looks like Parkbench is in charge of listing each corps with the member listed and how many years marched. Good job on the Cavies drum line post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudi man Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 The Kilties' record is held by Ray "Moon" Johnson. Moon marched 4 years in the Kiltie Kadets (66-69), 8 years in the Kilties Jr. (70-77), marched both reunion corps (80s and 92), and has marched every year in the Kilties Sr. (going on his 17th season, 1993-2009). That's a grand total of 31 years as a Kilt! (My mere 17 years in the Kilties pales in comparison, but I will have 30 years in drum corps after this season).Got me beat !

luvs me sum mello! Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Are you maybe thinking of Jeff Brown? He marched trumpet at Cavies from 2001-2006. There we go. I only knew him at the university from 2003-2005. So I couldn't remember the start an end years. Still, not a bad run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puppet Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 You know what ... it's interesting to see that so far there are no posts about this topic from the Muchachos ... they must have had members who marched 15 or 16 years or 20! LOL! Puppet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
