I remembering seeing Santa Clara Vanguard in Marion, Ohio in 1984 & 1985. I had seen the Ohio State marching band but I had never seen the a band change uniforms on the field. The vibrant colors and all of the flags and other visual effects and seeing how everyone was in synchronicity with each other. I feel in love and in 1986 with $200, I moved with a friend to California. Unfortunately, that was the last time I saw an amazing performance. I unable to see another drum and bugle core competition again due to life and kids. Thank you for the incredible memories.
