morganhill Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Welcome "back" Spirit of Atlanta!!! I sincerely hope you will consider playing some SOA classics of the 80's. Best of luck on your move and for the future of the corps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadwick Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Oh I've been waiting for this to come out...known for a few weeks. I know they are working with some of the local schools in the Atlanta area and may be close to nailing that down. This move may also help with members that need to travel by plane as Hartsfield-Jackson has sooo many flights from so many places. No need to make the trek from the airport all the way to JSU (only a few hours drive, but still, it helps). Atlanta also has some decent high school bands, perhaps this will help to attract more kids. Oh yeah.....The new unis are also snazzy! Quite a change from last season.

audiodb Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 The corps is not changing their name to "Spirit of Atlanta". It will remain "Spirit". Could someone please explain why they are not re-incorporating "Atlanta" in their name? The only downside I can imagine is if they don't plan on staying in Atlanta for the long term.

Galen Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 So what school/college will be home to the corps?? I'm guessing it will be OTP?? My guess would be Milton or Alpharetta since that's where they've hosted one of their shows the last few seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeithHall Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 The corps in my mind has always been Spirit of Atlanta. Same with Garfield Cadets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersop Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 The corps in my mind has always been Spirit of Atlanta. Same with Garfield Cadets. The only reason I stopped thinking of Garfield as Garfield ... was because the back of my jacket didn't say Garfield. It's cool to associate past with present, but Cadets haven't been a Jersey corps from the Garfield area in a very VERY long time. Spirit on the other hand ... is returning to it's roots. I'm not sure how far down that path they're willing to go but I say reclaim the name or let it lay. It's a hard name to live up to anyway..... and so is Garfield.

JeffP Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) My guess would be Milton or Alpharetta since that's where they've hosted one of their shows the last few seasons. Really? Hmmm. Sounds like a good reason to me. Edited October 20, 2009 by JeffP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
