Well I hear through the grapevine that nothing changes with fife and drummers comps...basically no audience...no real competition same people same corps, and they continue to black ball and discourage any newcomers...really is a shame...but...
What is the point..why do they not just have more of the muster type events and include the combination corps...maybe then more spectators would be involved...and then the organization itself would grow...oh yeah forgot...they don't want new people or new anything...just old...As I said about 1 year ago...someday (soon probably too) the old people will be dead...and so will the activity which is really a shame.
Also heared how one corps (junior combination) looks like old beggers with mismatched white(sort of) sneakers (also ha ha), mismatched white (sort of )pants, with the stripes pinned, and white (sort of ) sweat shirts. Seems this continues to be an ongoing issue for new members parents...really want the kids out of the sweatshirts...but nope...My challenge to all the old people that insist on keeping these wilting kids in sweatshirts..you do it...wear the whitesweat shirts with a wool cape and the tricornered wool hats in the parades, and to all the competitions and all other events just like the kids...then you can make the decisions...It is my opinion that this ongoing sweatshop type uniforms is truely child abuse and should be investigated as such
