Kuzma steps down as Corps Director

 

The Corps Director of Revolution, GM Kuzma, has stepped down, effective August 30, 2006.

 

In two years, Kuzma has led Revolution Drum & Bugle Corps through a remarkable transition back to the competitive arena. After Revolution went inactive in 2004, Kuzma was hired to assemble a team that would bring the drum corps back for a full national tour with a trip to Drum Corps International World Championships. Revolution successfully returned with the passing of a DCI Evaluation,and ranking 4th place out of 21 drum corps in Division III.

 

In 2006, Revolution returned to a position among drum corps' elite by placing 2nd in Division III at the DCI World Championships in Madison, Wisconsin.

 

GM states, "The members did a great job performing two very demanding shows. The excellent musical arrangements, visual design coupled with a very innovative instructional team produced two great drum corps in Revolution

And this is why Revolution will probably never make it to Div. I status. Stability in the organization is a problem for the corps. I hope they get can continue to kick **** next year.

It's a shame, I saw this earlier, but will they still hold auditions with no new director?
