That's what I guessed that it's a separate organization. The reporter probably thinks it's a part of the DCI organization. I wasn't familiar with it until I perused their website. My first experience with drum corps was attending "DCI" events in HS starting in '79. 👍 Edited November 6, 2022 by keystone3ply cx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how much it occurs, or how DCA's numbers compare to DCI. But it should not be tolerated anywhere. Period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one thing that’s amazed me in all of this is no public issues came out about DCA. I know several corps had policies in place years before 4/18 because of being all age and the mix of ages in their membership. As far back as my last years teaching in 2000-2001 changes and policies were being implemented. as I said this not specifically a DCA hall of fame, but the event was part of DCA weekend. But that’s changed the last few years 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For many years now without under 18 members many corps would probably be dead. but i taught plenty of kids in a DCA corps. the partying was nothing like it was when i marched just a few years earlier. even my last years marching the unwritten rule was hands off the kids...and i was 27 when i last strapped up a drum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also independent of DCA and any other drum corps organization. There are a lot of inductees who have been associated with DCA, but there also are numerous inductees who are most well known for their work with DCI. Also several "crossovers" who have worked with both circuits, and some whose work pre-dates DCA and DCI. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
