Women have been drum majors in Drum Corps for some time now. Are we moving back to women's suffrage?

But it's new for Casper whose pr agent liked to tout all Wyoming's firsts. What's that saying about "the first shall be last" ??? and the last shall be first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you can understand my confusion when this article claimed Savannah Light as "the first female drum major for the Troopers Drum & Bugle Corps in its 61-year history". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it be that past Women who conducted had different titles? Why is everyone so #### negative about any possible thing that ever occurs in DCI.
