Hello, I am a member of the Phoenix Drum and Bugle Corps (Div. 3). I found you through the drum corps interest link
in your user profile. Phoenix is based in Brick, NJ.What I am doing is trying to recruit for Phoenix, because we
really need to fill up more positions in the corps. We still have many horn line spots open, about 2 bass drum
spots, and we need lots of people for the pit too. We also have one or two more spots open in the guard, but our
biggest priority is the hornline. To be honest, we are pretty desperate. We have tons of fun (IM me or email me if
you want to chat about the corps-BBest2003@aol.com)and we work really hard. We have managed to establish a name for
ourselves throughout the past few seasons, and our staff this year is the best we've ever had. Our show is based on
music from the movie "Life as a House" and visually, our show should be wonderful. We are actually building a sort
of framework house on the field, and we are using ladders as props for soloists and whatnot. I joined the corps 2
years ago and though we are small and "only Division 3", we learn so much and have such a great time. I have never
met a cooler group of people that are so accepting and friendly. We practice on Saturdays and Sundays only, with a
few Fridays thrown in occasionally, so you can still have a job during the week. In late July, we go on a two-week
tour to Colorado to perform in DCI Championships. Plus this year we will be staying in Denver to watch Div. 1
finals. It's going to be amazing! Our fees this year are 1000 dollars per member, but before you decide against it,
let me assure you that there are plenty of fundraising activities, including sponsorship letters and working
concession stands at Phillies games. The corps is always willing to help out with money and/or travel issues. Even
if you play a woodwind and are willing to learn a horn, our staff can teach you. Plus, if you are in marching band,
marching in a drum corps over the summer means you will go back to marching band incredibly tan, strong, and way
ahead of where you were last year. The experience is great-please don't let this opportunity pass you by...we really
NEED anyone who might be interested. If you are interested or have any questions or concerns, you can contact me
directly through my email and i can get you set up with the right people, or you can email:
-phoenixmph2003@yahoo.com or matt_hurley@medcohealth.com (matt hurley, the director)
-MMingle16 (our drill writer/instructor)
-teo3@Lehigh.EDU (our drum major, telly)
Make the effort and just attempt to get to ONE CAMP-I promise, if you show up to one camp, you will want to stay for
the whole season. We work hard and we finally want to really make a name for ourselves...this could be that season
to do it...we've got the show and the staff...now we need the people to show up and stick with it. Thanks for your
time. You can email or IM me, or post in my livejournal if you have questions. Please please please help us out this
season!
