Meanwhile... we stopped in at Reading Buccaneers rehearsal over the weekend (20 minutes from our house)... and they are in very good shape.

Since this thread is active. Box5 has their “shopping list” for online DCA. Got a few choices but not sure what they consider “DCA weekend performances” if you buy other than just Prelims or Finals. I’ll ask….

I’m sure I’ll be criticized, but still don’t understand why this circuit exists. Other than being training corps, which DCI OC corps already provide, I fail to see the real value in today’s era of performance ensembles. 

Old people like to have fun too. There's the value.

And the young ones too… been getting younger and younger on the field.

In the stands a different, sad and scary story

Is there a tally of how many corps will be competing in DCA this season?  

i'm guessing 10-12? there were i think 14 in 2019

and this is due to the circuits absolute of coherent marketing plan. i have seen some improvements from the new administration, but it's going to take time.

I think it was a mistake to not have some kind of real season last year.  A few weekends with shows like DCI.  The video season was disastrous, TBH.  it was so annoying that I stopped watching and attributed the $50 I spent on Box 5 to lessons learned. 

Tough sell to ask students to invest in virtual competition. Even tougher sell to ask people to watch that!
