Galen Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 After much consideration and discussion with members, staff and members of the community, Overdrive has decided to relocate its operations. Said director Richard S. Foyt, "There's been a great influx of DCPI corps into the Indianapolis area this off-season which has significantly effected our recruiting to the point where we could not have fielded a corps without this move. We will be moving the corps to Daytona Beach FL, and will also be merging our organization with St. Pete Sound, who had sold most of their equipment after deciding not to compete this season. This will be beneficial for both corps, as we have the equipment and they have a good amount of members that are still looking to march this season and beyond. Indy has been a fabulous home for us over the years, but it's not going to be feasible for us to remain here in the future. We chose Daytona because it's close to St. Pete's base of operations and recruiting, and because we wanted to pick a city that reflects our own racing tradition. What better place to go than from the home of Indycars to the home of Nascar?" "As part of the moving process, we're going to change the name of the corps to signify our new identity. The combined corps will now be known as Velocity Fantasy Corps- a name that's totally befitting of what we seek to bring to the field: power, energy and excitement. We'll continue to use Overdrive's uniforms this season, and we'll also perform their 'Jazz-taposition' show this season, but you can expect that we'll work to forge a new identity for the two corps that have now become one," For more information on this new corps, check out Velocity's webpage at http://www.freewebs.com/velocitydbc/index.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
