Congrats to all of our staff and friends in Star United for another Mini-corps Championship. The video I saw on DCP of your peformance was ohmy.gif . You folks are incredible!
Congrats also to our alumni that were involved as members and staff with MN Brass for another very strong 2nd place finish in Open Class, to the folks at Govenaires for their Class A Championship, and to Steve Sev and his Vigilantes for making Class A Finals in their first year out!

My first time to DCA. Checking in the hotel I was scerinated to the old drum beats as members were outside all over warming up. That was fun to hear.

Friday night is the I n E and the big outdoor party. Craig and I did alot of recruiting for Ofest. So we'll see who actually signs up.

We didn't make the old timers show on Sunday am but went to everything else. We wished we would have but it was just too easy to relax in the room and go for a nice lunch instead of stadium food.

Met some great people in the stands all there for the same reason as us. We love drumcorps!

It was neat to see all we did, past Blue Stars either marching or on staff. Made me smile to see what they are all doing now.

So congrats to all of you that performed or the ones on staff.

I really enjoyed my weekend there!

Dawn

It was a very special weekend for the V-Krewe.

First year as a competitive corps.

Managed to finish in finals and then move up to 3rd.

Drumline won high drums

Several people involved in I&E including Mike Rossi (2004 Blue Stars) who won top honors in the trumpet/soprano solo competition!

It was great once again to see all the old friends from the Blue Stars and of course the other groups I've had the chance to meet over the years.

I still think the La Crosse based alumni should put together a performance group and at least go do Mini-corps! It's a blast!
