I'd say 1980 is among the best of the years with several of their best performances 27, Bridgemen, Guardsmen, etc...

1980 best year for bridgemen and 27th

1979 best year for guardsmen

Freelancers!

I know that they are always promising a return, but I want them back with the rest of your list.

Yes unlike most of the "dead" corps out there, The Freelancers still have their non-profit status and have a winter drumline. Which is closest to anyone to putting a corps back on the field.

82 thru 84 is best for the Freelancers.

Strange fact: From the top 12 of 1983, only 7 are currently active.

Those who have gone under:

SunCoast Sound

Freelancers

27th Lancers

Bridgemen

SkyRiders

Another strange fact:

1983 was the last year the Freelancers beat the Cavaliers.

Last strange fact:

1984 was the first year the Velvet Knights made finals.

While I would love to see all these corps back, I would much rather see corps come back in areas that currently don't have one

12th Command (MI)

Expressions (LA)

Memorial Lancers (MO)

North Force (ND)

Railmen (NE)

Sky Ryders (KS)

St Paul Scouts (MN)

And any Canadian Corps, from any province!

and etc... etc... etc

:huh:

Velvet Knights were 11th in 1985 and if memory serves me correctly still made finals in '86.
