gsksun4 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) From the seven charter members (in a competing sense):Skyliners Interstatesmen Archer Epler Yankee Rebels Pittsburgh Rockets From the early years (yes, I know some have Alumni's): Marksmen CT Yankees Princemen Westshoremen/Bonnie Scots Les Dips Reilly Raiders Hamburg Kingsmen Guelph Royalaires Boys of 76 Pre-DCA: Amboy Dukes Bangor Yellow Jackets Milton Keystoners Hersey Chocolatiers Criterions Carver Gay Blades Skokie Indians :-) Not DCA, but worth notable mention: Ballentine Brewers, Not to be confused with the Milwaukee Brewers................................... I think this corps had their very own beer truck that followed them to shows. At least I thought I saw it at the 64 Dream.

JimF-LowBari Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) The Jersey Joes.What a cool name. Fran Also like the Jersey Skeeters and Jersey Devils...... LOL, bought a Skeeters (aka Doremus Post) pin on eBay a while back. Has the DM holding a tray that's has the corps on it (1948 version of PhotoShop ). Scanning and posting it is on my to-do list as it's one of the neatest pins I have. Edited May 21, 2009 by JimF-3rdBari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsksun4 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) Pre DCA: Jolly Jesters, the Canadian circus corps. DCA: New Bedford Whalers. I think they guarded the colors with harpoons. And, who could forget the ever popular L'Odysee from Montreal. Edited May 21, 2009 by gsksun4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabalumnidrummer Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Pre-DCA: Geneva Appleknockers 1970 or '71: Garden Statesmen - Don't know if they ever competed at DCA prelims. Anyone have information about that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabalumnidrummer Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Also pre-DCA, did anyone mention Canada's Burlington Commanders and the Marching Ambassadors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
