United Alumni Drum & Bugle Corps will be making the trip from Southern Ontario for the 2nd year in a row on May 20th to 22nd, 2011. A fun time was had by all last year with great hospitality by the citizens of Buckhannon W.V.

Has anyone heard of any other corps that may be performing at the parade or field show?

Loved seeing you guys last year and wish I was there this year. My students wanted to go back but then I was let go so that some newly retired guy could teach at the school. Sadly, the band has shrunk to 14 kids and the choir is down to less than 10. Many kids quit because of what happened to me and the rest left upon dealing with the new guy.

Hopefully my next group (whomever that is) will make it there in the future.

ENJOY another year guys!

The gentleman who is charge of bands/corps (Brad) is the nicest guy! He called me in September about the band returning and I gave him the bad news that I wasn't there (and why). I think he was stunned. He then phoned me last month just to ask how I was doing. He is a true gentleman and a great man!

According to their Facebook page, Capital Brass from Albany is doing the festival this year.

Thanks for the compiments Keith. It was great to finally put a face to the name when I met you at the parade last year. We should once again have a good size corps again this year although it would be nice to pick up some snare drummers for that weekend. We may only have 2 and one can only do the show.
