Blue Stars hold successful Audition Camp!

Blue Stars recently concluded an exciting and successful Audition Camp on Thanksgiving Weekend! It was a tremendous way to start what promises to be a most memorable season for the Blue Stars organization. Over 200 auditionees were in attendance and every section was well represesnted. The talent level and attitude of all involved bodes well for the corps, especially since the expectations for the corps, both internally and externally, are extremely high. The many new faces on staff made immediate and positive impact in their repsective sections and the tone for the season was set early on! One of the larger audiences in recent memory turned out to witness the Show & Tell at the end of camp! All sections were represented well and the vibe in the audience was that there is something special in store for the drum corps community this season!

There are still opportunities for prospective members to audition for the 2006 Blue Stars!! We will begin setting the sections for the 2006 Season at our December 16-18 Camp. The camp will again be held at Irondale High School in New Brighton, MN. Registration starts on Friday at 6:30pm and camp concludes at 3:00pm on Sunday. (Everyone is invited to the Show & Tell performaces at 2:00pm on Sunday of camp!) If you are interested, here are some helpful links---

If you had any doubts about Blue Stars being a HIGH QUALITY, COMPETITIVE DIV. 1 corps, your doubts are over. I was able to observe an hour of rehearsal and their "show & tell" at the end of camp. They are for real. The Blue Stars team are going to come back into Div. 1 after a 23 year hiatus with a BANG! Watch out folks, this is going to be exciting.

Thanks for the kind wishes David, and good luck on your senior recital and student teaching. It appears that Blue Stars will be touring all over the country this summer, hope you have an opportunity to check out the 2006 Blue Stars if we are in your neck of the woods!!
