I would like to thank Cadets chair for sharing this information.  Any transparency and insight as to cause is always helpful.

2022 was a financial disaster that almost resulted in Cadets not making it to Indy. 2023 was a continuation of the problem financially.

That is an incorrect statement, on both counts.

I'm secretary of the board of directors at Cadets, if that helps.  Trying to keep accurate information flowing, and not gossip from those who do not know what they are speaking about.

I have so many friends who marched Cadets in the mid-late 1980's-mid 1990's. They're all hurting and any positive information that comes out of Erie is, I'm sure, welcome.

I'll take the word of the individual in the organization and not the one who rarely had/has anything positive to say about the Cadets.

I appreciate that.  Happy to continue keeping the facts out here while we chart our forward path(s).
