The Exchange

Congrats to all of the bands that competed in the 2012 BOA Grand Nationals!

The Reading Buccaneers Drum & Bugle Corps recaptured the Drum Corps Associates World Championships in a two-day competition in Annapolis, MD.

Are you an advanced drummer looking to get to the next level? Or a younger student trying to make your snare line next fall? Either way, this camp’s for you! Sessions are geared to your level, and the focus is on drumming. There are also workshops with Pacific Crest staff, including featured guest, Pete Sapadin. And you’ll be immersed in the Pacific Crest experience, sharing lodging and meals, and even drumming with the corps!
