Smudge Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Hi, I was wondering; because of work there's no way I can march in the summer at the moment. But I was wondering if there was anything, drum corps- or indoor- related, to do in the winter? Problem is, I'm 26 years old. And it looks like WGI will continue their age restriction. Are there circuits around that don't have an age restriction, besides DCA obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a whole bunch that gather in Plymouth, MA every year just before Thanksgiving, and many march in Christmas and St. Patrick's Day parades. FWIW, you DON'T have to be an alumni to join most of them...many just have their roots tied to their namesake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me, Sky's Alumni would be an option ... seeing that you marched their Field Corps in 2004 ... also, lots of opportunities as just a "player" by doing the BHOF I&E shows throughout the winter ... :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piper Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 In Drum Corps the term "alumni" can sometimes be a bit of a misnomer, because most of them don't require prior membership, although I think that some like the Cabs do. I'm not really sure. I would inquire first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
