As a frequent donor this is news to me. Not saying you're wrong, just that if this is true it is pretty annoying that I don't know it as an alumnus that donates a decent chunk of change every year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having to borrow equipment from another corps because Yamaha won't send them the new stuff till they pay the $100,000 in back fees owed isn't fine! Trying to sell off US Bands - the primary outside source of income isn't fine! Be OK with the corps is in dire straits and raise money! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And cue Algernon you just posted two falsehoods typical they already took delivery on an entire new Yamaha brass line - do you think Y would have delivered that with a six figure debt owed? The corps didn’t even buy new brass the past two years they are WAITING on delivery of entirely new front ensemble equipment Cadets are not flush with cash - so please donate but alarmist posts on the internet aren’t helpful how much have you donated Algernon? My guess is ZERO Edited January 6, 2020 by George Dixon 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picking Wisconsin was just a quick thought by me, but. U. of Wisconsin had surgery not that many years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
