It's part of our "9-11" history (that most of us geezers take pride in) - much like CV's old motto..."We finish 9th so YOU DON'T HAVE TO!!!" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Corps Guy Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I know a place in Southwest VA that has a wonderful site and is not tied to a college. In fact, they host a DCI show every year right after Night-Beat. Just thinking outside the box. https://www.visitroanokeva.com/listings/salem-football-stadium/6081/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is exactly where it is. DCA should seriously look at this location as it would give the southern Corps a fair shake compared to the "short drive" the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast corps have enjoyed for decades. Located near Roanoke, VA so there are many hotels available and it is close to I-81. Less than half hour away from VA-Tech.

stldrmn1 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Interesting Development ! Apparently DCI finials weekend will include a Saturday DCA/All Age Show ! How many I-95 Corps could/would make the trip to Indianapolis for what many turn into a Championship (pay day) event ? Expect more info to follow.

If that venue can host that championship game... they did a great job with it for years... it's well-suited to host an event like DCA.

Will this be in LOS (huge stadium) or some local smaller venue? Will DCA corps have to practice in Ohio or Kentucky because DCI corps already having booked those few practice fields not already being used by already in session Indiana schools (soccer, football, marching band, field hockey squads) ??? Ditto on the housing arrangements. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
