The_Clav Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 It was nice, and a bit sad, to see two of the corps I marched with listed. Saints and Kingston Indians. How about a couple my brother marched with? Dukes Imperial Guardsmen I think of all the corps that used to be in the Mid-Hudson Valley area alone. Pacers (and the Pacemakers, their feeder corps) Continental Cadets Port Ewen Cadets Vagabonds Imperial Guardsmen (? A different one than the corps mentioned previously. I'm not 100% on the name). A little more north... Patriots Barons of Steuben Watkins Glen Squires (I'll never forget their tuned 7 man base drum line) Volunteers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Clav Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Ah, I saw Les Eclipse listed. I'll never forget one year when I was marching with the Kingston Indians they stayed for a brief visit at our the Indian's lodge (our practice hall). We had taken the time to learn a song or two of each other. Later we did a parade, both corps marching together. 80-90 horns...what a sound!

The_Clav Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I can't help but feeling sad, and angry at the same time, seeing this great compilation of corps from the past who are all now gone, and likely never to return.Here's one nobody's posted yet: Racine Kiltie Kadets!! And ALL feeder corps from the past who are no longer with us. That reminds me... Troop 12 Indians, the feeder corps for the Kingston Indians. I'm glad this thread was started. I've been enjoying the photo thread, but many of those memories are a bit out of my grasp. The only Open corps I had the pleasure to march with was The Saints. I'd been offered a spot at one point with the Cadets and had a cup of coffee with Avant Garde, but for one reason or another I was unable to march with them, be it financial reasons or other obligations. So many of the corps listed offered the opportunity to march that I had with the Indians. No, we were never going to be a DCI contender, but we gave it our all. These days there are so few corps that will just take someone off the street and teach them. How many independent circuits are still even in existence? No, I never got to take the field at DCI finals, but I sure had fun none the less! It's just a shame that countless others will never be afforded that opportunity.
