Where was your highest finish at DCA Championships?

[Jeff Ream]

Hmmm... guess I should list this since I started the thread...

Best finish with Chieftains would have been 13th or 14th in the mid-90's, (before Class A) and then the first Class A title in 1997 when such a thing came to be.

Best for me at Westshore would have been 4th in Class A... 3 times.

Best at Sky was 11th in Open Class in 2004.

4th...sigh, that number haunts us Shore guys :P

Retire? RETIRE?!? How many times have I used THAT word?

Is there an award for the most number of "retirements" from the activity?

[Sayre Kulp]

I don't know, but I've tried that in:

1997

1999

2001

2002

2004

and

2006

Hasn't worked yet.

I was fortunate enough to win the open class title nine times 1975, 1986, 1988, 89, 90, 92, 93, 95 and 2000 but I honestly learned more in some of the years that wern't as successful which made those championships even more enjoyable.

AMEN!

Er... shouldn't this one trump them all? I mean, the definition of a Class A Champion is the highest-placing Class A corps that didn't score high enough for Open Class finals, right?

no. class A is 60 members and under
