Cappybara Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 (edited) Hey everyone! This is going to be the official thread for all the Staff changes occurring in the 2015-2016 offseason. Because I won't have time to actively search for any changes that occur, I'll need help in being informed of any OFFICIAL changes (via PM or posting on this topic). In addition, since this is a sensitive topic, I'm establishing some ground rules: 1. Any reported change MUST have proof of the change (Link to Facebook post from staff member/corps, quotation of statement indicating change, changes on corps website) 2. SPECULATION IS ABSOLUTELY NOT ALLOWED. Leave the speculation for private messages. 3. It's very easy to forget that these are actual people that we are talking about. Please be respectful and treat this in the same way as the topic used for recording the corps' repertoires -- it should be used to provide an easy visual into the changes that are occurring in the offseason. 4. Stay on topic (self explanatory). *** Full credit goes to the awesome people at frontensemble.com for the Corps logos. ================================================================ The Academy ==================== Blue Devils ===================== Blue Knights ===================== Blue Stars Leaving: Tim Fairbanks - Drill Designer Replacement: Kevin Ford (Link) ===================== Bluecoats ===================== Boston Crusaders Leaving: Andy Waldukat - Corps Director Replacement: Jeff Pearson (Link) -------------------------------------------------------- NEW: Brian Murphy - Program Designer (Link) -------------------------------------------------------- Leaving: Adam Sage - Visual Coordinator Replacement: Jay Murphy (Link) ------------------------------------------------------- Leaving: Jay Murphy - Visual Design Consultant (see above) Replacement: Anthony Smith (Link) ===================== Cadets ====================== Carolina Crown ====================== Cascades ======================= Cavaliers Leaving: Scott Koter - Program Coordinator (Link) Replacement: Dave McGrath (Link) --------------------------------------------------------------- NEW: Chris Lugo - Executive Director (Link) ======================= Colts Leaving: Chuck Naffier - Brass Arranger (Announced on FB) Replacement: TBD ------------------------------------------------------------------- Leaving: Jason Buckingham - Brass Caption Head (Announced on FB) Replacement: TBD ------------------------------------------------------------------- Leaving: ???
