The Buccaneer Alumni Drum & Bugle Corps - Who We Are
Members range in age from 14 years old to 65 or more. Ninety percent of the corps' members are former members of the Reading Buccaneers.
Most of the remaining 10 percent of the members are spouses and children of these former members. The balance of the remaining 10 percent just want to play in a parade corps that has a limited schedule.
Some may have marched in other corps in the past. Others may have marched in a high school or college band, and want to get a taste of drum corps, to see whether they might want to later step up to the Senior Corps.
There are 10 married couples in the Alumni Corps, most of these having met in the drum corps activity. We have parents and children performing together quite frequently. This is truly a family environment!
