WTF! Is this something that really happened over the years at SCV? That's brutal! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hirsbrunner Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) The purple feather thing was more of a myth/joke during my time. If it was an early 2010s thing, it died out to nothing more than a thing people were vaguely aware of a few years later. I am fairly certain no one was given a purple feather in my time with the corps. And I question where members (?) would even get them (stanbury?). I viewed it as a rumor within the culture (still an oppressively condescending concept). Relating to the meeting being cancelled I just wished they’d kept it tonight to communicate anything regarding status. It feels like they’re using staffing to again have an excuse to pass the buck farther down the road. Likely reading to much into it. I’ll still die on the hill that SCV’s constant refusal to engage and supply sincere information to the public is terrible for their comeback/success.

Mr_Moto Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) My understanding is that the Labor Day rule is playing an effect, but there is also possibly another vote or two required by DCI before things can be made official one way or another. Also, Dan Adams out at Academy? His contact info is no longer listed on their website. Edited August 29, 2023 by Mr_Moto 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know theyve had a few staff changes that the corps hasn't announced. TBH I think Dan being gone is a good thing. Did not hear good things from my buddies there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have all of their staff pages as “Coming Soon” so maybe big change ups are happening. Dan’s contact info gone was the big thing that I noticed when doing some research.

Lisa posted publicly that she is out. Dan I want to say is out but I can double check. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim retired I believe. I feel like I saw quite a few things congratulating him on his long career with Crown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Williams was the new CEO and replacement. But now all of Jim Williams posts and announcements are all gone and he’s removed completely from the website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
