Karen is a longtime fan of Drum Corps and the marching arts. Her relationship with the Troopers started when her son marched in 2019 and she volunteered for 3 weeks, washing uniforms and working on the food truck. She continued working with the Troopers post COVID  every year since 2021, working in various capacities on the Health and Wellness team, and was inducted into the Troopers Hall of Fame in 2023.  She is looking forward to this new role and is hoping to boost the volunteer experience.

MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Dear Volunteers,

We are so thrilled to have you joining us this summer. The heartbeat of a drum corps is it's volunteers. Without you, the corps doesn't function. Meals cannot be served, vehicles cannot move, and uniforms cannot be fitted.

There is so much that happens in the summer that requires the kind dedication of people just like you.

While the purpose of our organization is to create an activity that serves our young adults, you will have fun too! Incredible memories will be made and deep friendships will be formed. You'll see incredible performances all summer long, and travel to locations you have waited your whole life to see.

As you begin your on boarding process, understand that every adult that participates with the organization must adhere to the same process. From the board of directors, all the way down to our drivers, each individual must follow the five steps on this page in order to be involved. I thank you for your time and patience as you work through these required on boarding steps. It is the way of the world, and the Troopers pride itself in operating the most above board drum corps in the world.

We believe in your talents and in your capacity to be true professionals.  Be the best version of yourself, and together let us teach the next generation of young people what honor, loyalty and dedication is all about.

With dignity & respect,

Michael Gough

Executive Director, Troopers Drum & Bugle Corps
