This event is generously sponsored by members of the Forward Performing Arts Board of Directors as a thank you to the Madison Scouts alumni.
Members of the MSAA will be there from 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM for lunch and drinks, chatting, and reminiscing. We'll also hold a raffle for prizes like a drum head signed by the 2023 Madison Scouts members, MSAA merch, and MSAA stickers. Afterwards we'll head over to the stadium to watch the corps performances.
Before the meetup, some alumni will also be visiting the corps at their rehearsal site to watch their final run through. Check back soon for more info!
MSAA in 2023 - Road So Far and Coming Up
The MSAA has been in full force in 2023 so far! We had a lot of projects/events for the beginning of the season and there are still more to come. We have so many projects that they all can’t possibly be listed in this article. Here’s a small sample of what we’ve been working on.
Our vintage shirt fundraiser raised enough funds to give a shirt to every single member of the 2023 Madison Scouts! Be on the lookout for next year’s vintage shirt!
The Tailgate at Drums on Parade drew in a huge crowd of alumni and fans from all eras for drinks, food, and live music. There we hosted the first ever Mad Dash Microthon, as well as celebrated the 2023 class of inductees to the Madison Scouts Hall of Fame. Be sure to check out the MSAA website for a recap of the tailgate with pictures and videos.
A small ensemble of Madison Scouts alumni, under the direction of Craig Mason, performed the Star Spangled Banner at the start of the Drums on Parade and Whitewater Classic shows. Members of the MSAA also ran the 50/50 Raffle at Drums on Parade, which helped raise funds for the C.H. Beebe Scholarship Fund.
The MSAA has items available at the Scouts’ souvie booth and online store! Not only do they have some great Scouts merchandise available, but an Alumni Association sticker.
During DCI Finals Week we’ll be welcoming a new class of age outs from the Madison Scouts to the Alumni Association. The number of alumni from this incredible organization keeps growing!
Sponsor an Aussie
We all love the Aussie and were excited to see its return in 2023. You can show your support for the iconic headgear of the Madison Scouts by sponsoring a member's Aussie! You can provide a personalized message that will be inserted inside of the Aussie hat (brass & percussion) or, for guard members, attached to their equipment bags
