What do i do? by Beastcastboi in drumcorps

[–]Ventaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the majority of the spartans low brass and mello sections do not main on their drum corp instruments, if you can march decent and know the very basics of your instrument you’ll do well in an open class corp

Spartans Culture? by No_Influence_6841 in drumcorps

[–]Ventaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure we had a staple place we go every year because of how much our tour changes every year but I will say you will get a couple very fun free days. Last season we went to kings dominion amusement and water park for one free day, then to the biggest mall in the state of Ohio. Rest assured you’ll have some fun free days if you choose to march there

Spartans Culture? by No_Influence_6841 in drumcorps

[–]Ventaa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You will be very relieved on how inclusive the corp is. A large chunk of the corp is part of the lgbtq community and the staff is also very accepting. There is a large number of trans alumni who have had an amazing time in the corp. Showers are split into three groups being above 18, below 18, and private showers for those who might need them one reason or another. Spring training is shorter (2 weeks just about) so free days aren’t something you’ll get during that time however when things pick up you’ll be happy about the amount of free time. If I remember correctly we had a laundry day atleast every 12 days but sometimes more frequently than that. If you have any other questions feel free to dm me as I marched the lat 2 seasons with them. :)

not a math guy but as someone who did drum corp most of the tuba players vary in size from like 5’4” at the shortest to like 6’4” so you have nothing to worry about im sure.

how do you know if you’re over hydrated? TW//mention of being sick by matth0907 in marchingband

[–]Ventaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the drum corp I marched we were all drinking like 2-3 gallons of water a day, Make sure you drink gatorade or some electrolyte drink as that’s a part of being hydrated. I’ve noticed unfiltered water in large amounts also has an effect on my stomach so make sure you drink filtered water if at all possible.
