Recommended Posts

Extra chance to give a performance, judge feedback and appearance fees?

That makes entirely too much sense for DCPland.

Why are the Cadets even at this show anyway? There's no competition, and this time could be spent on rehearsing.

3 reasons:

- they compete against their best selves and contest gives opportunity to to make available new changes from Broken Arrow; the show becomes a lab.

- contest is along the route to Chattanooga and Nashville where corps will practice for Murfreesboro and Atlanta

- Cadets have a long habit of doing plus 30 even to 40 contests per season to widen their brand recognition, deepen the activity, and assist show sponsors/audience. From such audiences and families come future members, benefactors, and volunteers.

This is the way the entire first month of the season used to be in the mid to late 90s.

This was the lineup almost every night until late July. Keep in mind that Crown in those days was barely making finals most years:

Cadets

Crossmen

Crown

Magic

Boston

Tarheel Sun/East Coast Jazz/Patriots, etc.

I used to drool when Cadets were on after us and we had the chance to watch them.
