Petition against elimination of DCI caption awards
Drum corps fan Timothy Jackson has started an online petition against the recent decision of the Drum Corps International board to eliminate the caption awards during the DCI World Championships. About 1000 people have already undersigned the petition.
DCI decided to eliminate the caption awards because "is believed that the caption awards diluted the overall team effort of what a corps brings to the competition." The undersigned of the petition don't agree with that. "The beauty of the current system is that the Champion Corps are not the only ones publicly recognized. Winning a caption takes just as much of a 'team effort' as does winning a DCI World Championship."
The hope of the undersigned is to, by signature, encourage the Executive Board of DCI to reconsider their decision for future competition. The petition can be found here.
