NanciD Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 i don't have written proof but i believe it was the hurcs. i seem to remember them taking high drums 4 years in a row. I "need" written proof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donincardona Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) I "need" written proof. good luck with that. i think i'm the only one with written recaps going back to 67. that's as far back as i've seen anything.

cabalumnidrummer Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Isn't it in the Drum Corps News report of the contest, Nanci? If you don't have that issue, let me know, I might have the article clipped and saved in a scrapbook somewhere. You've got me wondering now. I think Don is right about the Hurcs taking drums. I'm going to go look for it right now, in fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabalumnidrummer Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Bad news -- I went looking, but I don't have the 1966 DCA Championship write-up, only the A.L Nationals issue of DCW with the report from Carol Merkel. This might interest everyone -- especially Don -- from the Legion title show: "High horn score went to the Hurricanes. There was a tie for best drum mark between the Hurcs and the Crusaders." (DCN: Vol. VI No. 17 - September 7, 1966) This was on August 28th. The DCA Championship wasn't until September 24th, so who knows what could happen in a month. However, Hurcs had a great line that year, and I think they did take high drums at DCA. We just don't have it in print. Sorry, Nanci!

Jeff Ream Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 based on what little I can find online, and including scouring RAMD, I'm gonna say Hurcs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traverbanking Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 The 1976 DCA yearbook lists the caption winners for the DCA championships from 1965 through 1975. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
