Wow, I didn't know that Southern California had another drum circuit. I just went on the DAC website. It seems like a newer circuit. Anywho, Westminster is Doing ADLA and SCPA.

Good luck to you guys, too! Are you competing in Open this year? I'm sooo glad we're making the transition from marching band to winterline....I'm just a parent and am exhausted! LOL...

Looking forward to seeing you, too!

Actually, DAC or Drums Across California is one of the oldest circuits in California. It is run by Michael Ellerby, who marched Kingsmen with Float and Hardimon. Back in the 80's and early 90's DAC was the circuit to compete in. Poway, Vista, Castle Park, Capo. Valley, Mira Mesa and Mater Dei were some of the top lines back in the day. I don't know how it is run currently, but back then it was an outdoor standstill competition with some movement, but not much.

Fairfield High is doing NCBA and WGI this year. We were thinking about doing CVGPC this year but it didn't work out and we're not doing CCGC this year because we'd be the only unit in our class again (PSO).
