Lol you knew who Hop was before you marched Cadets, there were some great design choices in the 80s and 90s (and some in the 2000s), and we all didn't know then what we know now so climb down off it. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, I marched there because of 2005 (and because of the incredible Cadet-alum staff members I had in a lower-tier corps). Doesn't make 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 design choices good. What's your point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offer to wash dishes or do airport runs. Offer to buy something the corps needs to feed the corps that weekend. Even a few dozen donuts goes a long way and is appreciated. Listen to ensemble and hear what they are playing and/or go to the parent meeting at the end of the day to hear what Denise has to say. I bet you change your mind when you leave. Here are the upcoming camps.... https://yea.org/events I live 7,000 miles away. I hope they make it to June, when I'll be back closer to them.

"...defended Hop personally and design wise..." so my point was you knew who he was before you marched and you still chose to march there. Prior to the years you mentioned, the designs were great, hence the many championships and silver and bronze medals they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking about people [[[George Dixon]]] who defended his design choices to the death And for the record, I don't think you could "know who he was" fully until you saw the ######## in front of you every single "day meeting," Hop talk, wakeup, and pre-show....

I defended HIS design choices "to death"? Not bashing isn't the same as defending - I've been very critical, particularly in the past five years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the Cadets' intention to announce their plan at the 2/18 Alumni meeting, I would expect some type of announcement before I go. Yup I'd personally expect something the week after the 2/18 meeting. Based on nothing but "what would make sense" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
