There is a smattering of vitriol on FB, sad to say.

I know Dans was being sarcastic about “DCI has never had a female dm”...but it got me thinking

of some great ones over the years that led with charisma and talent....Kristi Spears Phantom 96-97,

Catherine Clarke BD 91,  Marcia Hanson Phantom 83-84, Becky Woods Star 85-87?, Ashley Tappen Star 90?

Any I’m forgetting?

I would add Pioneer drum major Jackie Hirn to the list as far as leadership is concerned. I imagine she had her hands full keeping up morale during the ‘18 season.

It does really seem odd to me that some would have issues with a female drum major. There have been some amazing female drum majors through the years!
