Allen Buell Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Hello From Rochester!! All is moving forward very quickly... We are ready!! I get 10 to 20 calls and emails everyday with questions so I will now start to answer... It has been fun (but crazy) over the past 11 months in the planning of this huge event. Here is one thing everyone want's to know. WHERE IS EVERYONE STAYING????? Empire Statesmen / Batavia Holiday Inn Syracuse Brigadiers / Clarion Hotel Reading Buccaneers / Medina High School Gym Floor Hawthorne Caballeros / Clarion Hotel Minnesota Brass / Hampton INN Renegades / Double Tree Bush / Days INN Henrietta Hurricanes / Comfort INN Airport Corps Vets / Double Tree Grenadiers / Brighton Courtyard Skyliners / Clarion Hotel Sunrisers / RIT INN Carolina Gold / Hampton INN Crusaders / Country INN Heat Wave / Holiday INN Airport White Sabers / Holiday INN Airport Kilties / Clarion Hotel Governaires / Hampton INN Music City / Courtyard West Shenandoah / Diplamat Gulf Coast Sound / Holiday INN Airport Chops / Best Western Frontier / Courtyard Alliance of Atlanta / Comfort INN West Lake Shoremen / Marriott Airport Mon Valley / Holiday INN Airport California Dream ./ Holiday INN Airport Bridgemen / Regency INN Boston Crusaders / Marriott Airport Yankee Rebels / Hampton INN North Scout House / Double Tree Park City Pride / Radisson INN Cabs Alumni / Crowne Plaza Hotel Sky Alumni / Clarion Hotel Erie Thunderbirds / Hampton INN North Now there may have been a few changes because some have shifted here and there... but this is pretty set. If I overlooked someone who has moved feel free to jump in. This is just a small task keeping this all in line (considering I have a day job too) so I hope I didn't leave anyone out. The Clarion Hotel seems to be like a WILD HOTEL that weekend... It is also the home of the I & E show on Friday night. Main Street in Downtown Rochester runs directly in front of the Hotel and it will be closed off for the street party on Friday. This Hotel is directly across the stret from the Riverside Convention Center where the Mini Corps will be performing as well. Ok... any questions just shoot!! ^OO^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomMoore Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 (edited) You guys need a better agent... :P Everyone gets a hotel room except the defending champs - maybe winning isn't all its cracked up to be. ^0^ For years, the Buccaneers have stayed together over championships weekend at a school facility. It's worked well for our members and our staff, not only to help ensure that the finals performance is the best performance of the summer, but to cement bonds that only drum corps can produce, over such an intense, emotional and exciting weekend. That's why we do it. For me personally, the best part about marching finals weekend last year was to be together all the time. The emotion on the practice field after the last run-through, the camaraderie in the cafeteria during meals and after finals. As much as I appreciate the creature comforts of a nice hotel room, especially at age 37, I wouldn't trade those hours in the school with my corpsmates for anything!

Hey... whatever works for you is great. I can tell you the people in Medina are wonderful. I taught at the school (the Marching Band & Winterguard) for 5 years. Great little town, great people! You'll have a good experience. I just hope the farmers aren't spreading that weekend.... b**bs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
