SaraNYC Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Coming soon to the Sara L. Julian Experience.... The 2007 DCA Rules Congress portrayed in sushi. Official title: 2007: Unleashing The Seven In Me Guaranteed to get somebody's panties in a bunch!!! ^0^ ^0^ ^0^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ContraRich77 Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 on the small corps minimum size rule... please see my comments in the thread "34+me" where I believe Tom stated that although there would be some sort of change from judged to exhibition, corps under 35 members would still be allowed to field...............so any sized field corps are still going to be allowed to perform. Did I get it right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomPeashey Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 YES! That is correct. I have confirmed this... BUT of course, the appearance must be approved by the sponsor... DCA will not keep any corps from competing in any contest and even giving them the advantage of a score and tapes from the judges... It will go into the record books as a "judged exhibition" if there are less than 35 performers in the brass line, percussion line and color guard.

Periphery Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 (edited) That is not good enough. Let us compete. Please read my rant in the 34+ME thread. DCA is allowing the presenter run this activity, which is not acceptable. Edited January 19, 2007 by Periphery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idontwan2know Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Again, I have to ask, what about prelims? What sponsor should a corps talk to about performing there? Dave Bruni? The Rochester Chamber of Commerce? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

84BDsop Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 What exactly does that mean? Who is this "presenter" that DCA is allowing to run this activity you speak of? I think he means the show sponsor.... Wrong on this point my friend...I did speak up, gave them a more realistic number for a small corps 25-30, also Govies also talked about this, I should know they sat behind me at the meeting. The number started at 40. Which brings up anoter weakness in the system....you have 2 of teh top 3 Class A corps -- one of whom the current champ -- with no vote. You could talk all you want...but it does you no good...even Renegades' voting on dream's behalf doesn't change the voting numbers. it should be one corps, one vote....if you go to DCA you;re in....but that would be democratic....

Brent Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 it should be one corps, one vote....if you go to DCA you;re in....but that would be democratic.... as opposed to a republic...but who is splitting hairs here?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84BDsop Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 as opposed to a republic...but who is splitting hairs here?! Splitting hairs aside....the interests of smaller corps are NOT being served by a rule that effectively keeps even ONE of them off the field. Period, stop, end o' topic.
