What is drum and bugle corps? Well, it's kind of like marching band - but different. Drum and bugle corps are made up of brass, percussion and color guard. DCI Open Class corps members are all aged 22 and under. The corps go on tour and perform their show across the country. They travel on coach buses, their gear is hauled in tractor trailers, they sleep on gym floors and they practice and perform their show to fans all over. The corps will come for our show and then be in a different city/town the next day. This all leads up to Championships which are held the second week of August in the Indianapolis, IN area.
