Lancerlady Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 I just wish someone would tell us how to find those DCI Bylaws and policies they are referring too. I know it must be available for public record. Can anyone elaborate on anything or is everyone just blowing smoke screens for now? I'm not trying to start anything here, but honestly, this is just..I don't know strange to me. But I think I am figuring out what has happened on my own. But still it'd be nice if someone could direct me to the those "internal and external complications". And also the policies and by laws they are all referring too. I am interested in that. Do I write DCI for a copy? Anyway...thanks for listening.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Ream Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 I agree. I'm not blaming DCI for being evil or misguided here. IT seems to me whatever they did, they did because they had to. but because of how the rumor mills goes ( i expect calls tomorrow saying hey did you see on DCP the Troopers folded) more exact information can only HELP the Troopers. sure, maybe it isn't what they want to announce. I understand that. But if they did come out and say what it was, I think it would only help Troop gain more support in the court of public opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 This is upsetting, that an ORIGINAL partner in the formation of DCI, can have this done to them!!!! I hope more information comes forward in the near future. Now Jim Jones is turning over in his grave !! b**bs b**bs b**bs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlassFan Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 I dont know the story...but it hardly seem like they had anything done to them...It sounds like they did it to themselves. I'm sure they will correct it and be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne6 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Can Troopers tour in 06 as a regional D1 corps? DCI needs to clear this up as far as what the Troopers can do for 2006, be it limited tour or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumCorpsFan27 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 People who have read my posts know that I view DCI with a cynical eye. However, the Troopers have said they were in the wrong, that they didn't do what was necessary. I don't see any reason to think otherwise. I do hope they get things straightened out soon.

xmenjeffb Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 To all concerned, Pat , the webmaster for Troopers, has posted several times in this thread . I would ask that you pay attention to her post . She is very well connected with the Troopers and will post updates as she stated on the Troopers web site. The answers you seek will take time. Time for the board of the Troopers to review and Lay out a plan for addressing the issues as posted by DCI and on The Troopers website. I can assure you , as did Pat , that this not a " PLOT " by DCI to destroy the Troopers. Rules and regulations must be followed and it appears some have not been followed thru on. What those are I have no clue and I worked there for the last 2 years. This is a matter between the Troopers Board and DCI . To expect quick answers is unreasonable and would lead to more questions. Step back ,take a breath and allow the Troopers time to evaluate what and where they are, as well as the options available to them. I assure you Pat will update the website with information as it is available. I know your Love ,support and admiration for The Troopers is appreciated by all involved . There is a great passion for the Troopers and I am sure that they will come out of this stronger ,better, and ready to move forward. But at this time the board needs time to make wise decisions for the future.I know i wish them all the best . And as Far as Chuck " Bailing out " on the Troopers that is far from true!! It is Fact That Chuck and I have both offered our services of design to them again for the 2006 season.But much is still to be determined by the board. Give them a few days or so to react.

Lancerlady Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Yeah I saw the posts from Pat and they are basically saying the same thing that dci said, not too much for now. So I guess we will just have to wait and see what if anything develops from this unfolding story. In the mean time I am going to try putting in writing a request for the policies and by laws and see if I can get a copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toby Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Either way, I do wish the best for this historic group. With that, I will be waiting for further information on this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
