2008 DCA World Championships

It is Labor Day weekend and the start of . . no, not the RNC Convention, Drum Corps Associates World Championships. I am sure the Minnesota participants who are flying had no problem getting out of town, but I'll be curious to hear what their return trip is like.

For now, here are today's Preliminary scores to determine who continues on till Finals, Tomorrow.

I marched many years with Minnesota Brass, going back to 1978. I also marched a year with the St. Peter Govenaires, a corps my father, and grandfather both performed with.

This post will be updated until Preliminary Scores are final!

Here are the numbers:
