myopinion Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 The home show of Carolina Crown FirstBEAT will be dedicated to cancer awareness. This show has been dubbed a "pink out" show and the corps will all be wearing pink. The following corps will be there.... Carolina Crown - Ft. Mill, SC The Cadets - Allentown, PA The Cavaliers - Rosemont, IL Spirit - Jacksonville, AL Teal Sound - Jacksonville, FL Alliance - Atlanta, GA Atlanta CorpsVets - Atlanta, GA All the participating corps will wear pink as we "PINK OUT" in support of cancer awareness. We all know what Crown will be wearing.....any ideas about the other corps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skajerk Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I just have to repeat what I said in another thread, as brother to a breast cancer survivor, what a wonderful idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFZFAN Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I just have to repeat what I said in another thread, as brother to a breast cancer survivor, what a wonderful idea! I concur. My sis has been cancer free for 7 years now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustABandMom Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I just have to repeat what I said in another thread, as brother to a breast cancer survivor, what a wonderful idea! As a reluctant new member of the pink club, I also support and am touched by this gesture on behalf of drum corps. I just finished up chemo and radiation and am now an 8 month survivor. Imagine, the whole time that my son was marching the Cadets breast cancer show, I had it and didn’t know it. I think it is wonderful that MLB supports a pink day for breast cancer awareness on Mother’s Day and a blue day for prostate cancer awareness (which my brother has) on Father’s Day, and I am glad to see Drum Corps take up the challenge. I hope that they maybe see a little increase in their attendance because of it, as many people know someone with cancer and like to help support the cause. Wish I could attend First Beat, but my son will be there, and I’ll be giving him my pink Cadets cap that I wore during chemo to wear on my behalf.
