You have no idea how much I needed this. My first year tour fees for Colts is stupid expensive. I set up a gofundme and so far i have $5 down. I'm slowly freaking out.

Just went to Drums Along the Rockies last night. So, let me make sure I understand this…all the members have to pay their own way for the summer? That is crazy. I was hoping the performers were paid. They should be paying you for all the time and talent you all give. I would compare the level of performance and professionalism I experienced to a professional athlete. Corps need to pay these talented people for their time, energy and professional skills.

Another helpful thing, if you send letters put self addressed envelopes with your letters. That's helped me because it's harder for them to not donate. And make everything sincere and thoughtful.

Hey man.. I want to say thanks because your channel helped me out on my rookie year (2014) and it made those 4 weeks of tour a hell of lot easier.. for example, the bus box video or the DCI packing tutorial... Either way you helped me and others with tour. PS: I like your corps tags (you're necklace)

at 6:21 "Think before you buy something that isn't a necessity." options-- (1) Eat subway that cost about $10 for a sandwich chips and drink (2) $10 added on money to spend to go on tour This is just like what I was learning in school last semester, it is call opportunity cost. Like, would you rather this or this. You can only get one of your options. funny story Teacher: Money doesn't grow on trees. Me: Whats money made out of? Teacher: Paper. Me: Whats paper made from? Teacher: Trees. Me: \(._.)/

What's helped me a lot is asking for donations for christmas and my birthday. My rookie year (2012) I payed of half of my fees just from that.

How can a rookie member of a corps get in contact with their corps alumni to get donations/send them letters?
@Jdfuncorps10 жыл бұрын
Courtney Brown Try talking to returning staff members or admin, they could've either taught those alumni or marched with them and they could possibly help you out. If all else fails, try looking around some of the corps' Facebook groups (ie Spirit has a group that's for anyone who's marched from the beginning til now).

Look at some lower drum corps that you think you could get something out of. Like something challenging enough to push you but still reachable. Gain the experience, go for higher corps as you grow older and gain more experience, and practice practice practice!

@hunteralexander97916 жыл бұрын
If she says that, she has not seen enough of gofundme. It can be used for effectively anything as long as people see a reason to donate.
