Texas Crossmen Drum and Bugle Corps Invite the Community to Their Local
Rehearsals
web
posted June 25, 2009
JOHNSTON – The 150 marching members and
staff of the Crossmen Drum and Bugle Corps invite the community to
visit during their upcoming rehearsal in Johnston, South Carolina. On
July 8th and 9th, 2009, the World Famous Crossmen Drum and Bugle Corps
of San Antonio Texas, will be visiting Strom Thurmond High School, 1131
Columbia Rd, Johnston, South Carolina 29832 as part of
their 22 state eleven-week 15,000-mile national competition tour. The
corps is composed of college and high school students from all over the
world, who come to spend their summers in musical competition.
Local marching band students, along with fans of outdoor pageantry, are
invited to view their open to the public rehearsals. The staff and
marching members of the Crossmen hope that the community will come out
and visit during their rehearsals at the high school. Summer outdoor
rehearsals usually last from sunrise to sunset as they perfect their
competition field show. It is best to call ahead to find out what time
of the day you will get to see the best parts of their rehearsal.
In years past the marching members have gotten a chance to meet local
residents, and make new friends at the places they have visited. This
year the Drum Corps International Championships will culminate their
2009 tour August 6th through 8th at the new Indiana Colts Lucas Oil
Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana!
Many times local groups have been kind enough to bring the kids unique
regional treats as they cool down from all day rehearsals in the hot
summer sun. This may be the only time in their lives that the kids get
to meet people from so many states. And they always remember special
places, as they did in Louisiana last year when the group were treated
by the community to a Jambalaya Dinner for the first time.
Everyone is welcome to come out and see the dedication that the kids
put into their 2009 Show called “Forbidden.” A complete listing of
competitions can be found on the Crossmen Website at http://www.crossmen.org or the Drum
Corps International Website at http://www.dci.org
including information of live theater and web cast information. To
contact the corps on tour you can call Fred Morrison at 210-860-8228
