Hi friends and family! I’m so excited to announce that I’ve been contracted to march the Blue Stars Drum and Bugle Corps this summer! Marching in a world class drum corps has been a dream of mine since I began drumming in 5th grade, and it was one I never imagined I would accomplish. With this recent achievement, I realized that I can attain anything I put my mind and hard work towards, but unfortunately… I still can’t make money grow from trees.

The membership tuition for this activity is $6,350 and I need your help!!

This money goes towards traveling expenses, housing, food, equipment, and the amazing instructional staff. With this expense, there are also other materials I would need for the season such as clothes, luggage, air mattresses, and more - all adding up to a higher cost.

What is Drum Corps and how would it benefit me?

It’s a 70 day program where we rehearse every day and perform all over the country! Due to its longevity and exertion, it would not only push my physical limits, but also challenge my mental and emotional capacity. This activity would heavily contribute to my individual growth and increase my persistence, discipline, work ethic, and more! PLUS, I’d be doing my favorite hobby - drumming at the highest level with incredible friends and staff!

Here’s a video of the Blue Stars show from 2024 to give you a better grasp at what I’m working towards: https://youtu.be/cCJzjUA3f5M?si=MiygDGw7880ABZ59

Please help me march at the highest level and achieve my dreams! Any amount of donations would be greatly appreciated! From $10 to $500, you would play a huge part in my success and I would be overly grateful for your support! If you’re unable to donate, sharing this message would also mean the world to me! Thank you all!!
