Absolutely, we just found that out at camp yesterday. The vibe at camp was plain awesome! I had a good conversation with Scott Litzenberg...really pumped after that! This corps is turning things around quicker than I anticipated.

Attended Cadets camp yesterday...what a great day! The atmosphere was very positive and exciting, and we got to hear them work the first couple minutes of the show! Recruiting appears to be going well and the talent seems to be there. The staff has definitely been beefed up (great to see Neil Larrivee with the corps again!) and the creative juices are flowing freely. I attended yesterday with cautious optimism; however, I left at the end of the day with a big smile on my face! I believe some are underestimating the post Hopkins era Cadets. The Cadets brand is on the way back. Cadets 2019 = fierce!

Let's hope so.

I don't think Bobby staying on is a bad thing. Remember....they had to redesign half a show in April, and were already stuck with some things. With a full year to plan, and the guard staff upgraded, I don't think keeping him will be the doom and gloom scenario some project

I’m hopeful. Taking your word for it - the drill the past two tears was clearly “compromised “ by you know who

I still have no idea who this person is. When did she teach Cadets? Certainly not when I marched.

Didn't Bobby jump in late in 16? I think he was able to salvage some of that uh...interesting concept

Taught during the Zingali times? Commonality with Zingali at 27, Cadets and Star?

Denise was part of the rise in the 80's, and I believe was recently involved with SCV as well.
