2B or not 2B Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) July 3rd Wahconah Park 105 Wahconah St, Pittsfield, MA 7:30 pm Competing Corps: Excelsior Bushwhackers Hurricanes Sunrisers Marched in Wahconah Park 3 times in 1962. (Pittsfield Cavaliers and Pittsfield Monarchs shows. Then the Hudson-Berkshire Circuit Championships) For the two regular season shows. They did not take out the Pitchers Mound. They did for the H-B Championships. Be prepared. It is a Round Baseball Stadium. (we also had no yard lines every 5 yards. Just Start, 50, Finnish, and sides. Made it a little harder on us competing. BUT, the people up there are very nice, and they Know Drum Corps very well. ENJOY !!! (Asbury Park (N.J.) Hurricanes at that time for me) September 22 1962 Pittsfield MA -- Hudson Berkshire Circuit Championship -- STADIUM: Wahconah Park Position Corps Score 1 Starlighters -------------- 84.750 2 Magnificent Yankees - 83.933 3 Pittsfield Cavaliers ----- 83.416 4 Pittsfield Momarchs --- 81.533 5 Asbury Park Hurricanes - 75.483 6 Continental Cadets ---- 71.116 7 Valiant Crusaders------- 69.283 8 St Josephs Islanders -- 67.100 9 Scarlet Raiders --------- 61.464 EXHIBITION Pittsfield Imperials Edited June 25, 2016 by 2B or not 2B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the Suns move there from Jacksonville? That is what the Baseball team in Jacksonville was called when I moved to Florida. There stadium is right next to the Gator Bowl. The stadium was a V like deal. The VFW States were held there many times. Oh well I hope all who attend the Pittsfield show ENJOY themselves. As I said already. Nice Place. Nice People and Good Corps make for a Great Time !!! Edited June 29, 2016 by 2B or not 2B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow... I didn't know the Marksmen were still around. I remember seeing them (as an alumni corps) at the Harrisburg Forum indoor show a couple of times, 1990s-early 2000s or so..... but not since. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drsedlak Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 having marched on that field, i hope they took the mound out "Don't look at your feet; the ground will always be there." Yeah, that did not apply to this field or the old Scranton field! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
