Allen Buell Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 We would like to welcome Ron Abate as our drill designer for the 07 season. Ron is very accomplished in the activity. Ron has facilitated educational events to the MENC of The Crane School of Music, SUNY Potsdam, Mid York Color Guard Circuit, the New York Federation of Contest Judges and clinical offerings in pageantry arts education to high schools and colleges across the US. He has been visual designer, consultant and educator to many notable units: The Empire Statesmen Drum and Bugle Corps, The Jersey Surf Drum and Bugle Corps, The Cicero-North Syracuse HS “Northstars” Marching Band, Laurens “Jaguars” Color guards, The Piscataway HS “Superchiefs” Marching Band, The Shikellamy HS Marching Braves, The Rochester Crusaders Drum and Bugle Corps, West Genesee HS “Wildcats” Marching Band and the Kingston Grenadiers Drum and Bugle Corps of Ontario, Canada to name a few. We are very excited to have Ron on board for our 2007 season! Also joining the Statesmen Family is Peter Garrow of the WGI World Champion Patriots Winter Guard fame to the color guard staff. Peter has a great history in the activity and we are happy to welcome him to the Statesmen family. We are excited to welcome back Chris Thornton as Caption Head for the Guard. This should ensure the 2007 season will be most successful for Empire. If you are interested in being a part of the unique Drum Corps see our website at http://www.statesmen.org for details on how to join. 2007 looks to be another very exciting year for the Empire Statesmen! Be there... This is going to be crazy!! b**bs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
