What I suspect is a very large number of people ready and willing to donate generously to their cause due to concern for the impact of recent events on the corps, and especially on the marching members 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is to ensure none of the other programs will not be hurting Cadets in the future. All programs must have a solid business plan, a 3 and 5 year growth plan and a solid plan to relieve the debt all programs may have. Is this based on speculation or has DCI specifically said this?

dhawtho1 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I think YEA has flown by the "seat of their pants" for many years. The damage runs deep. All due to GH complete control over EVERYTHING 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybersnyder Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 People have mentioned liability insurance would cover any lawsuits. I don't know what kind of insurance they carry, but EPLI (Employment Practices Liability Insurance) will typical cover harassment, but it usually excludes any physical acts. That threat is going to loom over the business decisions for the next several years. And not only lawsuits from victims, looking at Glassdoor "reviews" there are a ton of ex-employees that are potential lawsuits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that's what the 990 says. 38 minutes ago, N.E. Brigand said: The initial Inquirer article about the allegations listed a similar figure. That's on the high side for a non-profit of YEA's overall budget size, in my opinion, but not out of bounds. This is pretty similar to what Eric Martin at Music for All (BOA) makes.

Naive question here: if YEA disbanded and another entity took over the Cadets, would it insulate the corps from liability for the things that happened under YEA?

I've wondered the same thing. Or if YEA decides to cease operations, declare bankruptcy or whatever - would the Cadets be considered an asset or free to emerge from the fire on their own? Instruments, vehicles and such would be a YEA asset, so they would truly start from scratch. That would be a heck of a fundraiser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
