wackywords Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Are there any corps out there that do internships during the summer tour? Is there compensation for these positions? I know DCI does one but not sure about any others. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randyb Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Teal has internships available in all captions and administration. Contact jeff@tealsound.org for instructional staff interns and Lainey@tealsound.org for admin positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccerguy315 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 dci.org/internships for the dci ones... Teal has some, as posted in this thread. One of the posters on DCP interned with Blue Stars one summer I think Crossmen have had an intern at some point (not sure on responsibilities) ... if you are looking to volunteer your help, I'm sure a lot of corps would be willing to have you on tour, depending on your qualifications.

glory Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Are there any corps out there that do internships during the summer tour?... Some unsolicited practical advice for this and similar such moments later on. Don't ask questions like that. Don't wait for the answer. Make your opportunity. Contact the corps and propose an internship with yourself as the intern. Identify the need. Make yourself the solution. Corps that already hire interns will recognize where you fit. Corps that haven't in the past might see something they haven't seen before. As former Cadets guard mistress April Gilligan once said (in spicier language): Good things don't come to those who wait. Good things come to those who prepare. HH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

contrajedi8 Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 A close friend of mine did an internship with the Bluecoats in either 2007 or 2008. He had a great time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

contrajedi8 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 thanks for the info. And all he did was email every corps director and inquired about internships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
