Take the Kitchens Lions Flying Dutchmen for "ant- pie. They are geared to field over 100 marching members, with a bugle sec- tion of more than to mem- bers; a percussion line of 3.0 and a color guard, flags and rifles, numbering 30. Today's drum corps, un- like those of 20 years ago, are not only larger in size. they march to a different beat as they perform music much different than the corps of bygone days. One ot the heaviest and most demanding areas of modern drum corps is the areamf field production and training. Here is the reason for the massive administra- tion. Here is the front line where the major work for the Dutchmen takes place. Hours and hours of practise go towards creating a com- petitive field show. Music and marching must be co- ordinated months ahead of performance. Arrange- ments must be written and taught. Running a drum corps is a big business. Just outfit- ting the members can run as high as $50.00 per mem- ber for a major group and the annual budget may run from $25,000 to $40,000. There are instructors' fees, bus transportation costs. equipment and maintenance and gym rentals for winter practises. Where does all the money come from? The cash prizes in the sum- mer weekend contest hard- ly cover the bus bills for the winners. The corps as a unit earn most of their mon- ey in parades such as Ok- toberfest, Santa Claus par- ades, and centennial cele- brations. This is where the special- ist must come in. Consul- tants and instructors from all parts of Canada and the United States get together for co-ordination sessions necessitating much effort and expense. . Additional financial sup- port comes from such ser- vice clubs as the Kitchen- er Lions Club and local firms and groups. Drum Cbrp is the type of thing that runs in your We honor . . .

At ~17, Dave Horas of Burlington is one of these teenagers. He travels to Kitchener at least twice a week to practise with the Dutchmen. Dave believes deeply in drum corps movement as a means of self discovery and fulfill- ment. He has often said "Drum corps is both chat- lenging and exciting. It teaches you to set a goal for yourself and then proceed toward that goal. The work may be hard, but its all worth it when you succeed."
