Standrews Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) Met two young people from Fusion Corps at the theater in Rockaway last night. Told me they won't be in the Woodbridge show. What? How can an organization in so much trouble, canceled shows, not put on the best show possible? Find the money to have them there and give the fans the best possible line up. They're 45 minutes away. Edited August 11, 2017 by Standrews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spandy Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Looks like they were at Peckville on the 29th, Kingston on the 5th, will be at Williamsport tomorrow, Reading on the 26th, and then Championships. Maybe the staff just wanted give the members a weekend off? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Standrews Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 Members told me they're having a weekend camp. So no weekend off. I'm familiar with the logistics. Seems they should be able to do both. Benefits of their home base and show location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spandy Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) The Woodbridge show has 4 of the top 6 corps, Fusion is already performing 3 other weekends in August (Bucs and Cadets are each only doing 2), the Clifton show was closer to home... I guess I'm just not seeing the big deal here. Edited August 11, 2017 by Spandy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I'm just not seeing the big deal here. Exactly. A lot of corps have weekend camps, with no performances scheduled, at some point during the DCA season. I'm guessing that's the case here with Fusion. Tuning things up for the last two weekends of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimpjorps Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 For at least the last couple years, Fusion's done a camp weekend two weeks before Finals so that they can spend the whole two and a half days concentrating on necessary cleaning and revisions without having to worry about travel logistics or a show. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps you should ask the management at Fusion that question, They were originally IN the show and decided to pull out a few months ago much to our surprise and disappointment.

Dan Detweiler Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 @Standrews...I am sure they would gladly accept your tax deductible donation to cover the expenses so that they can be where YOU want them to be. Dan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Standrews Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 Hey Jay, members didn't tell me that. Were just less than enthusiastic about traveling to Williamsport to compete against three corps and voiced disappointment about not being able to compete against Reading at a much closer show.
