The Legion D&BC continues a long tradition of youth drum & bugle corps, with roots in our community and support from the same veterans organizations that founded this unique and popular art form more than 100 years ago.
Modern drum corps has evolved into a multi-million dollar enterprise, performing highly produced spectacles of face-peeling sound and amazing precision.
Nationwide competitive tours cover more than 10,000 miles each summer in fleets of motorcoaches, semi rigs, mobile kitchens, souvenir vendors and support vehicles. Each corps travels with up to 150 members and an entourage of more than 30 professional staff and volunteers, stopping at stadiums around the country to compete for points, prize money and drum corps history.
The Phantom Regiment, two-time DCI World Champions
Our goal at the Legion is to bring the excitement and musical excellence of modern drum & bugle corps back into the community, where it all began. We aim to incorporate the best of both worlds, the old and the new, with a first-rate professional staff and top of the line equipment, combined with a year-round program to develop young musicians while entertaining our friends, neighbors and drum corps fans right here at home, in our own community.
