The growth of our corps is outpacing the revenue we earn from performances. While this is an exciting problem to have, it means we currently have a growing list of instruments and uniform items we urgently need, but are waiting on funding to purchase.

 

In just our second year as a corps, we already have 40+ events booked in 2026, a testament to the meteoric growth and demand for what we’re building. We are also consistently adding 2–3 new members every month, and our most recent recruitment campaigns alone brought in 10 interested new drummers and 5 new fifers. Most exciting of all, we’re beginning to welcome youth members, investing directly in the future of both our corps and the fife and drum community.

​

We’re incredibly grateful that our performances have provided generous donations. In addition to this program revenue, we have also received donations from local businesses and private donors which is a strong early vote of confidence in our mission. ​That combined support has already allowed us to: Secure our future by organizing as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and purchasing several instruments and pieces of equipment. We have also covered essential annual operating costs including insurance, administration, and organizational memberships—ensuring a strong and sustainable foundation.​
