Sorry, but a Brewers' revival isn't in the cards. Nor are the Hamm's Indians coming back. For your dining pleasure, however, the Spamettes are considering a comeback.

Anyone have word about the "Rocketeers" from Alabama?

The Ski Mask Cadets will not be fielding a corps in 2012.

Since the corps has not performed anywhere since 1981, this announcement is not really a surprise. :ph34r:

Well, kids, there's another new corps way up here in the Northwest.

The great organization, The Seattle Cascades, and their Parent Organization have announced the formation of a new corps in the Vancouver, WA area. Yes, that's the area of the old Vancouver Spartans! With a rich history of Drum Corps ahead of it, the NYMA is helping bring drum corps back. Following is from their webpage: http://www.nwyouthmusic.org/

Please wish them good luck! We need all of the new Drum Corps we can, especially here in the Northwest!!

*** New Drum Corps in Vancouver, WA! ***

We are starting a new Drum Corps in Vancouver, Washington.

We will be having our first Walk On Weekends (W.O.W.) on November 19th and December 3rd. We are finalizing the location of the WOW and will be announcing it shortly. The WOW is tentatively scheduled from 9am-9pm with a lunch break at 12pm and dinner break at 4pm. Can't attend our WOW on the 19th, that's OK! We will have our second opportunity on the 3rd of December. Stay tuned...

What is a W.O.W.? It's your opportunity to experience drum corps in the Northwest! We will be going over exercises and techniques in both marching and playing, and will start to dive in to our 2012 show.

This new Drum Corps will be competing in Drum Corps International's Northwest tour and at the Califoria Open Class Championships, as well as performing at events in the Vancouver-Portland area.

Tuition and fees will be kept to an economic level.

Students are welcome from middle schools, high schools, and college.

There will be a $20 fee charged for the WOW to help cover admin costs.

We will also be holding a parent Q&A after introductions on Saturday morning and will also have a show and tell at the end of the night about 7:30pm

We will be updating this website with exercises and items you will need to prepare yourself for a productive WOW. We will not be doing a formal audition or one-on-one auditions and the WOW will be in a full ensemble format. Keep checking the website for updates all the way until the 19th!

If any immediate questions, please contact Dan Perry at danp8161@yahoo.com or 971-998-5234.

What to bring

* Lunch & Dinner - we will not be able to provide food for this event

* Instrument - please bring an instrument as we will have some, but won't have 14 snare drums to go around

* $20.00 - there will be a $20 fee charged for the W.O.W. to help cover admin costs

* Bring a friend. Ot two! The more that are here, the better the experience

* We will be doing some marching basics so plan to bring athletic clothes that you can march in
