Need to go to work, can elaborate later. I get that, but I also remind myself that this activity exists for the kids who pay to be in the corps, not for the corps.

Eleran Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Given the spreads, it looks like a lock for 9th place. Whatever changes Cadets might make in the off-season, they're going to have to be monumental. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup it appears that Blue Knights, Blue Stars, Cadets and Mandarins are all locks unless tomorrow night something drastically changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they have the percussion section to thank for it. 6th place in drums vs 13th place for Mandarins accounted for 1.1 of the 1.25 point spread.

They are true performers. One the most entertaining to watch and listen to. Thank you, Cadets battery and front ensemble!!!

Also very true. There's been some discussion that the members sign up really not knowing what the program will be and a lot of trust is involved. I think if one goes for a message, that the membership would need to be aware early on so they can decide if they wish to buy in on it or not. 5k is a lot of money. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
