Message: [QUOTE="SUMB, post: 1923353, member: 1426"] I too am an SUMB alum! 1997-2001. I was in Sitrus too and even got to direct when I was a student. Good times! Unfortunately, the Saltine Warrior is a no-go; we aren't permitted to play it. I can look into bringing back POTO though; it was shelved in around 1999 or so. Believe me, no one wants more Sousas than I do...they make they band sound and look bigger. Scholarships would be the only way to really bring those kids in quickly, but that takes serious $$ as you might imagine. I keep trying to get a scholarship fund established but it's a little difficult to get that kind of thing going unless a donor comes forward with a gift. Finally, I totally agree about the OG; she is terrific. We just completed a small scholarship endowment for the twirler (a donor came forward) and are currently marketing the opening in the twirling community around the country (which is bigger than you think!).
