garfield Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Has anyone else considered the coincidental timing of the DCI/DCA "merger" and the formation of Cadets-2? Oh yea, nice things.

That might explain why those Freemasons were at the last DCA meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Ream Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 There is no grand conspiracy here folks. What's a commom theme in here? drumc orps is dying wah wah. Well, here are the two organizations, pooling together to find ways to save money and make money when it makes sense to join together, promote the activity, yet keep their distinctive identities. I mean really this should have happened decades ago, but well, let's not rehash all of that. This has the potential to be a good thing. DCI just entered into a strategic partnership with TOb as well, one of the largest marching band circuits in the country, with members in PA, DE, NJ, VA, MD, WV, OH and I think still NC. is DCI trying to merge wth Tob? Far from it. They found common goals that will help each other out. as for any comments pertaining to YEA, I'll refrain. It's June, I want to hold off on being called a hater til at least july 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCI has learned a lot the last two years ( minus touring models) and maybe they realize they don't know it all. DCI, and TOB both know that good can come from DCI as well. I know this acitivity is huge in everyone finding the hidden deep meaning and looking for conspiracies. Well here it is folks: especially with this economy, the marching arts are hurting. Anything that groups can do together to promote the activity and push education is a good thing. DCI, to take ovr DCA, would have to radically alter it's charter, mission and 501c. Think they want to do that? Now imagine...remember here in the East, not that long ago, shows with DCA and DCI corps in it? You could see that again, and not just here, but more everywhere! Imagine that...win win for all!! hell, there was one 25 minutes from me that drew 6000 fans or more every year. There were a few years Allentown didnt even draw that.
