That evolution that I spoke of earlier also constitutes when the sport is taking place. Even past the last football game or last local competition, these performers keep marching on. Some schools participate in Bands of America that takes them out of the local spotlight and takes their school band across the country to regional competitions, there is the winter marching scene that involves all sections of a band individually competing on basketball courts, some schools participate in summer band, and then there is drum and bugle corps that is like the major league for the best of these performers and isn’t school affiliated at all. These kids are busy, they’re dedicated, and more many they grow up to well prepared for what the world has to throw at them.
