Lots of independent WGI groups are not although I know that’s not the same. DCI requires it for all competing corps, both world and open, as well as level 3 SoundSport ensembles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavaliers: @Hook'emCavies in as Corps Director and Grand Poobah over all things Cavaliers. The DCP World was stunned, but only in that it didn't happen six years ago. 6 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcifanforlife Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 DCI bylaws clearly state that in order to participate you have to have 501C status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if nonprofit is revoked by State of CA for non-compliance, SCV is automatically removed from 2024 tour? If this is going to happen I hope it happens fast & not, like, in May 2024. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCI BoD should follow the rules. If they knowingly allow an organization that is not in legal compliance to participate, do they then open up DCI to some liability? DCI needs to be talking to their legal counsel (& listen to them, even if it isn’t what they want to hear). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several corps have multiple Tax ID,s and file 990;s under each Tax ID. Look at what the Cadets did pickup a new Tax ID from an inactive group and change the name. Active Tax ID's with 501C status can be purchased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
