2008 meets?

No plans formulated yet, but it might be nice to have an alumni meet sometime this summer.

Perhaps an informal gathering at a drum corps show?
Or some other plan?

Here are some local corps shows I have found:
. Thurs June 26 Oswego, IL
. Fri June 27 Racine (Cadets + Boston + Troopers)
. Sun 6/29 Naperville (Cadets, Cavaliers, Spirit,
Carolina)
. Tues 8/5 Michigan City (DCI Open Class prelims)

What did you do in the Corps? drummer

What years were you a Corps member? 1958-63

I would be in favor of the"Naperville Show",for
a gathering.

Naperville looks good to me as well.

Re: 2008 meets?

Tentatively on July 5 I will attend DCI West at Leland Stanford Junior University Stadium, Palo Alto, CA.

Also noted that DCI has moved it's big show to Bloomington Indiana--Indiana University Stadium. I guess their plans for Indianapolis fell through.

Re: 2008 meets?

John, good catch on DCI finals moving to Indiana U. Anyone that planned on going to Indy should get a room in Bloomington quickly.......not as many hotels there.

What did you do in the Corps? baritone

What years were you a Corps member? Cadets 62, 63 Imperials 64-70

Re: 2008 meets?

If any NP alums are going to the Naperville show, perhaps someone could coordinate a meet there?

Just post here and try to get a time to meet.
