bobk9258 Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 Following lengthy review of the current status of the corps, the Troopers Board of Directors decided today that in the best interest of the corps, they will not field a competitive corps for the 2006 season. “This is the right thing to do, “commented interim director Mike Ottoes following the board meeting. “It’s going to be most difficult on the members, but in the long run, this is the right thing to do.” Over the next 12 months, the organization will focus on securing the proper paperwork and filings, building a solid financial base to operate on, bolster corps management and solidify all corps operations in preparation for the corps return to full competitive status in 2007. _________________ Pat Chagnon Troopers Drum & Bugle Corps Web Administrator http://www.troopersdrumcorps.org :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
