wayne6 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 What are Pacific plans for 2006? I love to see you guys do an field exhibition at the DCI Seattle show. Hope to see you at Mini if not 2006, maybe 07. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TicTickyTic Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 y not start doin drill....make a show? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, It just does not pencil out for us. 1. Our nearest competitor is a 16 hour drive away 2. There are only 3-4 shows in the NW, and our season would be 1 long weekend. 3. Our budget..................oh wait, we don't have one. 4. DCA is a long ways from here. It could be argued that the California corps have the same obsticles, but they also have a much larger potential member base than we could ever hope for. And they have each other as well. Speaking strictly for myself, I would love if over the course of several years our organization grew into a field unit. I think that for now we can be most successful with what I see as our current primary mission, which is this: To provide an oppurtunity for those individuals in the northwest who have benefitted from their drum corps experiences to reinvolve themselves in the activity. The Jr. activity is growing in the northwest right now. Maybe the future NW drumcorps vetrans will take our humble organization to new heights of competition. For now I think that we are doing well to bring a little drumcorps into our members busy lives. BTW, 2006 will be our 3rd annual undefeated season (a.k.a. the shortest drumcorps season in recorded history). We might also be in a position to form a successful minicorps too, so stay tuned................... B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne6 Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 That good news maybe one day DCA might happen but for right now I like the idea of having the opportunity of marching the drum corps experiance and still maintaining a job also having a family life.

MarkT-GCS Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 1. Our nearest competitor is a 16 hour drive away B) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah.....and? Gulf Coast Sound went on 4 trips this year. Racine, WI, Rockmart, GA, Orlando, FL and Scranton, PA. That is a total well over 10000 miles and the nearest trip was Rockmart and it was a good 13-14 hrs one way. And we did all this with good fund raising on a tight budget and with no debt. It can be done. It just depends on how bad you want it. Would be great to see you guys at Finals next year.
