scheherazadesghost Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Guess I'll eat my hat if these numbers are true. Have said several times in the past that Vanguard will never have a recruitment problem. Our legacy will sustain through anything, etc etc. I still believe that. Having a young corps isn't necessarily a problem. We were young in 04 too. I'm genuinely curious to know what's on the mind of those returning vets though. If they're anything like me, my unwavering commitment was a mix of responsibility, obligation, and love. Doubt that's changed. My body broke before my conviction.

You can’t really blame them after last year right about now if memory serves. given some of the rumors about 19 and 22 and member experience, they may have found other homes last year where the experience was better 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olddrummer34 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Care to tell us what those rumors are? Some of you are just so eager to tear down these drum corps. It is exhausting. Go start your own forum where you can talk trash all day long. Just leave the negativity off of here. Seriously. It is getting so old to open a thread and see the same 3 people (Jeff Ream, ShherexadeGhost or whatever) being completely insufferable. You have ruined this place 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fewer vets than usual shouldn't be surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have ruined this place Can’t take it anymore after a grand total of two posts. This has to be some sort of record. As always, feel free to add your positive thoughts. Everyone will be happy to read them. Otherwise, griping is just griping. You don’t have to read this stuff. And Jeff Ream is eager to post positive things. There just doesn’t seem to be an over abundance of that regarding SCV right now. 🤷♀️ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
