shrinkingclarinet1991 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 I've been having some trouble finding Division II and III corps in the Chicago area. Does anyone have names of corps or know where I can get more info? Thanks greatly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hipposduck Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 (edited) A complete list of corps' and their locations can be found at: http://www.dci.org/corps/ Edited November 15, 2006 by Hipposduck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoonerFan04 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Not sure of any really close, but Capital Sound is 2 1/2 hours away in Madison...and although it's a bit of a drive, Memphis Sound is about 8 hours south. Both great corps. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubawarrior Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 (edited) there are no II/III corps in the Chicago area...Windy City was supposed to become one, but that's a long story. Yes, one of the closest ones is Capital Sound (and I make the drive from the southland, it's not that bad), with an exciting show concept, great new staff and level of enthusiasm amongst current and prospective members that I haven't seen in a long time, this is going to be a great year for Capital Sound.

MelloHorn13 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Actually the closest 2/3 corps to Chicago is Racine Scouts. 45-1hour minute drive on a good day. They have a camp coming up this weekend. Should be more info on the site. ww.racinescouts.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc66 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 AND...not, to much further away is CAPITAL SOUND... Our first camp is: DECEMBER 1-3, in McFarland - Wisconsin (just outside of Madison)... Details will be on our website: www.capsound.org We have an ambitious 2007 show planned, and interest is high...we'd love to have you come join us.

Hipposduck Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 quick question, are Cavies or Phantom closer? I know they're not 2/3, I'm just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubawarrior Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 (edited) depending where you're coming from, but most likely, yes Cavies or PR are closer...you drive through Rockford (Phantom Regiment [i-90]) to get to Madison, and again depending where you're coming from, you will most likely pass Rosemont (Cavaliers) as well.

shrinkingclarinet1991 Posted November 16, 2006 Author Share Posted November 16, 2006 (edited) quick question, are Cavies or Phantom closer? I know they're not 2/3, I'm just curious. Hmm, I tried replying and it didn't work, let's see if this one does. Cavaliers are in Rosemont while Phantom is in Rockford, so it really depends where you live. The chicago suburb that I live in is closer to Cavaliers. Both are manageable drives-for me personally I think its about 45 minutes and 1 1/2 hour.

DrummerGurl21 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 SteelTown Brass is an option. We hold our camps in Mid-Michigan, and we have people that come from WI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
