the last to have that that i can think of was the Kilties. 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. 

Yes that is who I was thinking of.  Not the worst idea I ever heard, but as with DCI, the demographics of DCA have changed as well.  
 

exit: One would hope DFTK would be obvious & not need to be written.   Sadly this is not the case.

Pertinent story involving Varsity, etc

Perhaps someone should point the National Peoples Radio reporter at certain individuals in the marching arts.

I recall at a few DCA Corps having no-under 21 years old policy unless a parent was in the Corps. 

After the 1971 season a good piece of Garfield’s drumline quit and joined the Cabs, who were the next town over in Hawthorne. George Tuthill was the drum guy for both, and Garfield let him go. None of the drummers were 21.

i switched to baritone to not play in the Garfield drumline under the new guy…Fred Sanford.  😮

Gonna be a shame when Twitter goes under. It'll be a lot harder to keep up with this stuff on national level.
