Had they been able to clean it, it seems they would have gotten rewarded handsomely Keep in mind, you age out of Shadow at high school graduation. Their age limit is 14-18 per their website. I’m thinking they allow recent high school grads. If not, that seems awfully strict. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 (edited) Note to self: next year, book a hotel rather than driving the 4+ hours back after this show ends at 11:30 a.m. Edit: er, that is to say, 11 p.m. Edited August 7, 2019 by N.E.

N.E. Brigand Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 The crowd was so loud when first place was announced that I couldn't hear Spartans' score. (And this was a crowd that was heavily populated with Legends parents.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 The Colt Cadets' mom next to me asked if she could take a picture of my notebook where I'd written down the scores, which of course was fine. But when I reached my car, I heard Brad Bell come back on the microphone to announce three score corrections, including for her child's corps. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told last night at the show that Shadow allows 18-year-olds to march in the summer following their graduation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drove through it in Ohio yesterday afternoon. Very heavy at times, especially near Toledo. (Which is not to be confused with Dayton. Totally different city.)

Ended up not being able to do a full OC retreat because of bus driver limitations after the hours-long rain delay. I wonder if that contributed to this year's move to Marion, which is much closer to Indianapolis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yah. A corps housed around Marion can just stay put and bus it into Indy for the performances. Less logistical mess too also, I remember some talk of whether the rain delay was gonna push performance times past midnight and make issues for noise ordinances. There’s houses around that stadium if I recall. Whereas at IWU they’ve just got whoever might be there early (I.e. student athletes) who’ll be up late anyway on campus. It’s not really “right in” Marion. Almost out to Gas City Edited August 7, 2019 by KVG_DC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
