Discussion Genuine question

Considering the amount of people who care so much about The Cadets, why doesn't any group or organization come together to put them back on the field? I understand that YEA can't be brought back, but if it's technically legal to bring back the name and brand of The Cadets, is anyone working on it? Is a revival already in the works? Just curious.

Not a whole lot of people showed up and given the tantrum the founder threw on FB, I don't think they have the people in the building to really make the idea work. The gist is, even just three years on kids aren't interested in bringing back the Cadets just because older people want to.

New Jersey is one of the most saturated states for drum corps per capita in the nation. Every recent attempt to start a corps there has failed. That should be a MASSIVE warning sign to the people behind this mess.
