Tyler C. Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 (edited) Atlanta CV gives a smaller version of the star worn on the uniform. Five-year members get a gold star for their uniform. Edited September 7, 2012 by Tyler C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrocker Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 In 2010 we (Alliance) started selling pendants, basically the corps logo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightmareBC Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 At the Hurricanes, we have a lightning bolt pendant that we give to every member. As well as two colored beads (one for each side of the pendant) that represent every year of participation in the organization! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heyjude1202 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I am a member of Carolina Gold, and we do. I can't speak for other DCA corps, but we get a necklace and a bead to signify membership and how long we've marched. That's really cool wasn't aware that Gold has necklaces. Back in 05 and 06 when I was involved with the corps, we received membership pins, not necklaces. Do you know when the corps started doing this?

GoldWolf2003 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 That's really cool wasn't aware that Gold has necklaces. Back in 05 and 06 when I was involved with the corps, we received membership pins, not necklaces. Do you know when the corps started doing this? The necklaces began in 2010. Each new necklace comes with a gold ring and a show bead for that season. Subsequent show beads are earned as you march each season. As was mentioned before, gold and silver beads are earned if you stick around a while. Section beads are thrown in the mix as well. The yearly membership pins are still a tradition.

vbc33 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 The Hurricanes present their members with a lightning bolt necklace. You get two beads (one for each side of the lightning bolt) for each season you march. The beads alternate in color (green, white, black). Also, the Corps gives 5-year pins and 10-year rings to honor members for their years of service. The rings come with 2 diamond chips, each chip representing 5 years of service. Members can submit their ring to have additional chips added. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
