Melrose is looking for anyone interested in participating in the fun of competitive Drum Corps without having the pressure of a field corps schedule. The corps is a self-sufficient organization that supplies its members with practically everything they need to perform. Uniforms, excluding black shoes and black socks, are provided along with equipment. Bus transportation, leaving from South Amboy, NJ, is provided to most performances.

We have a top-notch instructional staff consisting of Drum Corps Hall of Fame Members, Wes Myers> and Tom 'Bucky' Swan. The instructors are willing to teach new people from scratch or refresh applicants on all aspects of Drum Corps, from reading music to correct marching techniques. Rehearsals are on Sundays from 6PM to 9PM (except for performance days and holidays).

If you're interested in joining or just have questions for us, fill out the application below and one of our section representatives will contact you. Please understand that this application does not mean that you are enlisted as a member, but that you wish to be considered as a potential future member.

Thank you.
