FPonzo Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I spoke with John Arietano on the phone last night, and he confirmed Lambertville's intentions this year - so I moved them up onto the list.And, Strutta has chimed in to needle the Thunderbirds about Harrisburg, so I'm also going to count Mass Brass as "heard from". That only leaves Golden Eagles, from the Harrisburg group. So, since they're booked for that - I'm moving them to the list as well. Can someone from the corps confirm their plans for us? And how about some more info from everyone? How are you doing? What do your members like about the corps? What plans do you have for 2007? What IS a mini-corps to your group? Ok......since I haven't seen anyone from the Golden Eagles respond yet, I guess I will put my two cents in.... YES......The Golden Eagles WILL BE PERFORMING at the MCA Invitational in Harrisburg PA. There has also been some discussion about possibly doing the Grand Prix in Hawthorne NJ in July, and we will DEFINITELY be in Rochester come DCA weekend. The West Sayville Golden Eagles Drum & Bugle Corps is sponsered by the West Sayville Fire Department of West Sayville, Long Island NY. We are mainly a parade drum & bugle corps, who's members have been or are all involved in many DCA/DCI corps throughout the past 20 years. The main purpose we formed a mini corps was because most of the membership wanted to do something more than just parades. We decided to enter the mini corps competition at DCA back in the late 90's and the corps did very well, placing in the top 5 their first year out. We are the 2004 DCA Mini Corps Champions, and plan on at least being in the top 3 once again come DCA weekend!!! If you would like information on joinging our corps, please contact Director Don VanEssendelft at SVE54@aol.com Cant wait to see all the performing units in Harrisburg!!!!

brassomaniac Posted February 20, 2007 Author Share Posted February 20, 2007 (edited) I thought I saw something about these corps planning mini-corps appearances this year: St. Rita's Latin Express The Romeo's and are the Govies participating in mini-corps this year? Andybody out there from these groups, who can let us know? Edited February 20, 2007 by brassomaniac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
