Glassmen guard from 74 and 75

We think this is Shirley Kemp and her daughter about 1974/75.

BTW, why is it that every snare line gets identified?

Many thanks to Lindap for giving names for the marching members in her photos. TY!

And Thanks Dean for posting all of these Glassmen photos! :mat::mat::spitting:

Ok, We know these photos are out there so lets get them posted!

What, jealous Oberon?

But it made me laugh.

Me too. As a DM waaay back when, I made a point of knowing my snare lines. They kept me in line if ya know what I mean ;-) In all honesty, I'd stare at a photo for days and remember some of the first names except one. I do what I can :-) edit: I volunteered to help with our 2011 reunion. We're currently compiling a list of contacts. I finally remembered the missing name this morning. 1977 snare line L-R Claudia, Tanya, Nancy, Shirley, Jan, Debbie M.

Wow, Vistalites! I only remember 2 other corps' playing these; the Muchachos and the Kilties.

2-7 used them in 1973 as well. I'll get a picture up later tonight.

Blue Stars - Snares went back to chrome mid-season, but rest of the line stayed clear.

Vistalite's.....Seemed like a nice idea at the time!

From what I've read Guardsmen had them in 1976. I remember they had to be tuned alot during summer of 77. Here's a closer look at our Vistalites. Our triples (multi-toms) were also Vistalite's
