Help Jillian March DCI This Summer
Hi there! It's Jillian! This year, after lots of hard work, practice, and audition camps, I am very excited to be a member of Southwind Drum & Bugle Corps, where I'll perform all over the U.S. this summer as vibraphone section leader. We start our tour in mid-July and end up at the Drum Corps International World Championships in Indianapolis this August.
As most of you know, I'm really passionate about music and marching. DCI offers me the opportunity to perform as one of marching music's elite. It's an incredible opportunity for me, and could help open doors for future college scholarships, as well.
Marching in a DCI corps isn't free, though. My tour fees are $2,500, which covers my meals, housing and transportation for the tour, plus a whole summer of instruction from world-class musicians and educators. I'm working to earn as much money as I can between now and July, and I'm asking friends and family to help me reach my goal
I've dreamed of being a DCI percussionist since middle school, and with your help, my dream can become a reality!
