There are others, unfortunately, who don't "get the hint" or realize it's time to move on. Which type is Hop? I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I LOVED that Star show 90 & 93 were their best shows - with 93 being less popular with the crowds but more forward thinking 91/92 they had extremely talented corps but both programs fell flat at times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we are speaking from the point of administration experience, not show design, MM experience, or audience appreciation. DCA is once a week drum corps not 24/7 with six states zoomed though between sunset and sunrise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a directors perspective trust me it is a lot more fun. If Hopkins retired as Director of Cadets after this summer he would have served for 32 years (Cadets formed in 1932) and ended with a program Mass that served as the foundation of his first championship. Symmetry! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
