Without Missing a Beat, MENC and DCI Discuss Field Endeavors

In late April, MENC leadership and officials from Drum Corps International met at the National Center for Music Education in Reston, Virginia, to discuss projects of mutual interest.

Those include "DCI Salutes America," Saturday, June 20 at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis, Maryland. The Drum Corps International Summer Season opener will include music students performing with DCI groups as part of MENC's Music Education Week in Washington.
