Drum Corps International

The 2008 Drum Corps Competition featured eight fantastic corps and was truly a family event filled with pageantry, precision, and extraordinary musical talent.  Canton’s own Bluecoats competed against some of the nation’s top-ranked corps including the Blue Devils from Concord, CA; Blue Stars from LaCrosse, WI; Boston Crusaders from Boston, MA; Mandarins from Sacramento, CA; Santa Clara Vanguard from Santa Clara, CA; Spirit from JSU from Jacksonville, AL; and Troopers from Casper, WY.

In 2009 the Enshrinement Festival will again join forces with the Bluecoats Drum and Bugle Corps to stage one of Drum Corps International's SUMMER MUSIC GAMES competitions.  Some of the nation’s top corps will provide pageantry and precision for a crowd of more than 8,000 spectators at Paul Brown Tiger Stadium in Massillon Ohio.  The highly disciplined youth involved in drum corps will compete in approximately 50 shows per summer season, sleep on their buses or gym floors, and endure rigorous practice schedules to present an exciting performance to the fans night after night.  These dedicated youngsters promise to give you their best in drum corps entertainment, so don’t miss what will be an evening you won’t soon forget!!!
