Do they have a set of horns to start rehearsing with?

I don't think they have horns. I saw in their website that they want the kids to bring their own horns. They want the kids to feel "comfortable" when rehearsing.

Best of luck to them.

Important Information:

We ask all brass players to please bring your respective instruments with you to rehearsal! We want to make sure that you're comfortable with your horn when you're assessed. Corps instruments will be assigned later. This is very important.

Any persons under the age of 14 without an ID should be accompanied by an adult or fellow corps member. Please contact us ahead of time if you expect difficulty.

Los Alamitos Base Protocol:

Some simple rules when entering the base--

1. Make SURE to obey speed limits--the base people are unmovable on this point.

2. Try not to wander, stay close to rehearsal sites.

3. Leave no trash on the ground anywhere, anytime, ever.

4. When in the band room practice the Golden Rule--respect all and leave everything as you found it.

5. Be courteous and respectful of base personnel.

6. Just practice common sense!

I wonder what alumni think of this. I talked to one that was quite P.O'd about what happened to the corps in the 80's.

I wish them all the best, on and off the field.

But then again, I am an 80's Velvet Knight! :tongue:

Seriously, best of luck and see you at Nationals!

Might want to hold OC finals in CA soon - it looks like most of the corps are coming from there!

The man makes good sense! And don't forget that had SCVC travelled to Indy this year the West Coast would have swept all medalist spots.

Just watched the Video from the 72 Finals.

:tongue: :tongue: :worthy: :worthy: :worthy:

Pretty cool, even though a certain corps that's currently having a lot of success in world class should have won that year instead of placing second!

Anyway, this is great news! It would be awesome to see them grow and someday be up in the ranks of the world class corps with the rest of the corps from that first DCI!

Don't forget Gold, too. They were gunning for the 3rd spot during their season.
