rgortowski Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Forgive me if this has been discussed, but I can't find any information. I am under the impression that the mini-corps will be performing in the staduim in 2012, at night, under lights. Is this correct? Does anyone know if the corps will be on the actual field, or moved up to be closer to the stands? Will the field size be the same as last year? Finally, with the unfortunate passing of Dick Pronti, is there a new liaison for the mini-corps/individuals, yet, or is it too soon? Thanks for any answers.

David Hobart Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Just a quick update: Kevin Hassan, the new I&E coordinator will be heading to Annapolis to meet with stadium officials in a couple of weeks to finalize our plans. Since this is a new venue, there is much to be planned. It's going to be a fantastic evening - that is guaranteed! Any groups needing information should contact Kevin here: kevinh@dcacorps.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny Drum Corps Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I have been in contact with Kevin and the show be on the field. We have discussed dimensions as the best way to get the best venue for the mini corps. Kevin is a very suitable replacement for our friend Dick Pronti (RIP), and has already began working on these types of things. Donny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shenandoah Vibrato Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 It will be interesting to see what kind of changes occur with a new venue and a new organizer. I am looking forward to hearing the mini corps outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Ream Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 the year it was at the stadium in Scranton was my favorite. the facility in Rachacha was nice, but it could be tough to hear over the socialization Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strutta Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I agree Jeff. Outdoors rocks! Did I hear that there is actually a smaller outdoor venue at the Academy that will likely be used rather than Marine Corps Stadium? I believe I read somewhere possibly on here that the plan was to play outdoors in this smaller venue. Anyone from down that way have anymore insights as to the layout of the campus and does such an additional venue exist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone from down that way have anymore insights as to the layout of the campus and does such an additional venue exist? while things could have changed in my absence... the original bid was to use the banquet rooms under the stadium for I&E and to have the mini on the main field - obviously pulled closer to the front... I'm sure Kevin will assess the situation and let every know soon enough to allow proper design use of available space... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
