Abuse and harassment in drum corps - share your story


Recommended Posts

Have you experienced abuse, slut shaming, hazing, “initiation rites”, and intimidation while being a corps member?  How did it make you feel? Did you ask someone for help and how did they respond? You can make a difference if you tell us your story.

Ummmm - no, we''re not going there.

Posts by anonymous posters on a public forum, with no means to validate the alleged violation or claim are not what we are prepared to host on this site. If there are claims of impropriety, which I'm sure may exist, they should be taken to the appropriate channels with the specific organization, law enforcement, or other authorities so they can be properly vetted and acted upon.  Posting those claims to a discussion forum do not address the issue.

If you have a claim against a member of a drum corps organization, I encourage you to seek out the organization's resources for handing these matters - including corps management, Board of Directors members, or a trusted adult.  If a suitable/responsive channel is not available, then law enforcement or other authorities that may have jurisdiction in your area. 

Thank you.
