New and re-emerging corps approved for DCI tour
The Open Class Advisory Committee met during the first week of May for a final evaluation and review of new and re-emerging drum corps throughout the country. Following the evaluation, six Open Class corps have been approved for participation in the 2010 Drum Corps International tour.
The six corps are The Spartans from Nashua, Forte from Grand Prairie, Platinum from Raleigh, Genesis from Rio Grande Valley, Thunder from Spokane and City Sound from Long Beach. The first four mentioned corps have been approved for regional touring and to compete this August at the DCI Open Class World Championship in Michigan City and Indianapolis.
New and re-emerging corps wishing to participate in the Drum Corps International tour annually undergo an evaluation process, which is supervised by the Open Class Advisory Committee (made up of seven Open Class corps directors) and key members of the DCI staff who monitor progress and offer assistance.
