Have your initial auditions, have callbacks and choose your MM's. 2rounds and done. Next camp is the start of show production. And if I recall from last year, the January production camp is also when all corps policies and behavioral expectations are reviewed en masse with MM's and all staff. I just see this as a sensible and logical approach to clearly communicate how the season should unfold especially given all the issues that have come to light over the past year. It doesn't seem difficult to do it like this. And I can only assume this would be the norm for many of the top corps. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barneveld Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) On January 8, 2019, in News The Boston Crusaders rang in the new year with our first production camp; returning brass and percussion members reported to Lakewood Ranch HS, along with all three 2019 drum majors. An exciting weekend of drum corps unfolded, culminating with a Sunday afternoon ensemble performance of the 2019 show music. Both the brass and percussion received music the week prior to the camp and did excellent work preparing the challenging material. At the end of the Friday night block, Executive Director Chris Holland gave a 45 minute organizational overview which included the zero tolerance policies and key areas of safety and conduct. The organization is committed to on field and off field excellence, thus the highest of standards apply to members, staff, and adults at all times. Saturday was intensive drum corps from start to finish. The visual team obtained baseline fitness metrics on all brass members, worked on marching techniques, and spent considerable time on movement and choreography. We welcomed back Brady Sanders, and are excited to have added Lin Daffron and Max Applegate to the visual and movement staff. Meanwhile, Dr. Vivien Tucker began individual health assessments on members. Thanks to Assistant Corps Director and Lakewood Ranch Band Director, Ron Lambert, ample dedicated volunteers were onsite to ensure the weekend ran smooth and efficient. We were also very grateful to have Gina Hagopian present to coordinate and assemble a fantastic kitchen crew. Operations and administrative team members – Jack Kaplan, Mike Pfeil, MaryMason McWhorter – also used the weekend to plan Texas production camp logistics and move-in/tour travel and housing projects. Our design team, caption managers, drum majors, assistant corps director, and executive director will participate in the DCI annual meetings this week in Indianapolis from January 10 – 13, where the focus will be on safety, health, & wellness. Over 350 people from the drum corps community will be present over the four days, and we are looking forward to representing BAC. Our next production camps are February 8-10 for brass and percussion and March 15-17 for brass only at The Colony High School in Dallas, TX. We will return to Lakewood Ranch for our April 26-28 production camp and Family & Friends performance. https://bostoncrusaders.org/2019/01/january-production-camp-recap-2/ Edited January 8, 2019 by Barneveld 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
