In fact, drum & bugle corps in Essex are more or less extinct. Once known for having some of the best drum & bugle corps in the country - Mayflower from Billericay, Blue Eagles from Basildon and of course the Dagenham Crusaders.
You could not go from town to town in Essex back in the 80's without bumping into a marching band, the Hadleigh Marching Militaire, Southend Blue Jackets, Wickford Show Band as well as the top drum and bugle corps. However that all changed.
The first board meeting will be held at the beginning of July 2011 - if you would like to be involved, please do not hesitate to contact the new corps.
