What happened to Minnesota Brass?

I haven't been keeping up with DCA, but was surprised that Minnesota Brass wasn't at championships.  Did the organization fold?  Minnesota Brass was a large corps at one time.

Two years ago, when Brass showed up at DCI's big Minnesota event in July with a corps that was but a pale shadow of its former self, some former members here said that the corps membership for close to twenty years had been filled by a substantial core group of stalwarts -- and they were burned out and wanted to enjoy summer like regular people do. And potential replacement members were more interested in DCI oppoprtunities. The corps did manage to fill enough gaps to easily qualify for Finals that year, but in the fall they announced that they were going to have to undertake some reexamination, and based on the small number of people who applied, they've decided that Sound Sport is the most they can successfully sustain.
