KeithHall Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Where's little Donny Allen in this pic? 1974 Auburn Purple Lancers At our recent reunion in Rochester over DCA weekend, one of my old corpsmates brought this sparkling memory from my best year of competition. This was from our OTL playing "Divergents". We finished tenth accomplishing our goal to become a DCI finalist. We are still the only NYS corps to achieve this. I remember seeing this on sale at a photo table at a show that season and thought it was a lost memory until the reunion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad you got a copy and posted this. The drill, uniform, flags looks pretty much like many of the 70's corps I ever saw. What is the origin of the name Purple Lancers?

baja Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 1974 DCI North poster (i gotto go make dinner now, bye :-) What I notice the most are the faces of the members in these photos Linda. I see intensity, fear, determination and resolve. I also see 14, 15 and 16 year olds. Thanks for taking the time to refresh our memories!
