Hi everyone!

Hope you are keeping safe and getting ready for the upcoming holiday season.

The Great American Drum and Bugle Corps was created for the purpose of marching in the July 4^th parade in Philadelphia next summer.  Along the way, we were given the chance to pick up some additional performances, which – at the time- made sense to take on and give folks more than one opportunity to perform that week.  Unfortunately, one of the biggest comments we are hearing from people on the fence or unable to commit is that it is too much of a time commitment, requiring them to come in on Monday and be with the group through Sunday.   So, we’re shortening it!

We understand that summertime is generally tough for many, with PTO spread out among vacations, family obligations, etc., not to mention the financial aspect.  The revised week will now bring you in on Wednesday instead of Monday, and your commitments will end Friday instead of Saturday/checking out Sunday.  

It’ll now be 3 / 4 days instead of a full week.
