Senators announce plans for 2006
Arrangements and briefings outlining the plans for the Senators during the summer of 2006 were finalised and communicated to the Senators Membership at a recent meeting. The corps will be particpating in DCUK and DCE, along with several other trips to mainland Europe.
The corps will have applied for membership of Drum Corps United Kingdom and intend to perform in the Open Class division at Grantham (3rd June), Aldershot (23rd July), Newport (10th September) and the DCUK Championships (30th September or 1st October). The Senators will also be performing on the bill at the East of England Invitational event being held on the 2nd July alongside the Glassmen Drum and Bugle Corps and other leading UK and European based marching bands and drum corps.
The corps will be travelling to mainland Europe on the weekend of 24th and 25th June to perform in exhibition with Beatrix Drum & Bugle Corps. This event is been staged in France. The Senators will compete in the Open Class competition at the Drum Corps Europe Championships in The Netherlands on the weekend of 23rd and 24th September. The Senators will be again travelling to the Netherlands on the weekend of 14th and 15th October to perform at the Leewarden Tattoo in the north of The Netherlands.
The Senators organisation remains committed to embracing their constitutional requirement of promoting the advancement and education of young people in the art of marching music whilst recognising the need to further expand and explore the opportunities for performance available for its committed membership and alumni to further enhance the Senators experience of all.
To this end, the Senators Drum & Bugle Corps will be adopting a dual focus policy for 2006 with a combination of an 'exclusively youth' and 'predominately youth' based membership. The Senators 2006 summer program is varied and extensive with 8 engagements already secured and diarised and is in line with the organisations commitment of some 18 months ago to transform the Senators from an organisation that exists to compete into an organisation that competes as part of its wider prospectus and program.
