justafan Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Congratulations Bluecoats! This was a great finish to a great season by a corps that has done it the right way and is structured to sustain this level for a while. I can't wait until next year - the blooing after winning a championship will be awsome. Yes, it could happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwillis35 Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Once upon a time there was a local "Class A" parade corps from a small town in Ohio... 38 years of Bluecoats History. Ups and Downs, financial problems, TWO inactive seasons, identity crisis, staff changes (good and not so good) making finals consistently a quality product then dropping out of finals - then clawing their way back and building ever since. Consistent growth all the way to maturity - top to bottom. A World Class organization - and now finally some much deserved respect. How many other drum corps have come and gone in the past 38 years?? They made it. Congrats to the entire Bluecoats family - present and past! Bring on 2011. Well said!! This little parade corps, started by the Canton Police Boys Club is now a top 3 Internationally-Ranked drum corps!! Great show from them last night. I am just waking up and beginning a review of the evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluecoats88 Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Ken -- remember the days when we would give anything to beat corps like SCV, Phantom, Cadets, etc etc etc..........I second your thought!! BRING ON 2011!!!!!! Hell, I remember when we were glad to beat Glassmen, Boston, Dutch Boy, Sky Ryders, and Colts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
