Our Scouts had an amazing 2024, breaking back into the Top 12 at finals after having a great run all throughout the year. The 2025 Madison Scouts season will be upon us before we know it! The 2025 season groundwork is underway. This coming 2025 year and season is shaping up to be exciting! We want to engage many more alumni to help us support Our Scouts and get the Alumni socially together to revive old friendships and make new ones. Please help support the corps and keep this amazing momentum in the future! Participation is key in helping us grow our association
The following are some of the projects that are ahead for 2025. As always, we would love for our Alumni base to be part of these activities. We welcome you and look forward to seeing you.
The MSAA Madison Scouts Hall of Fame Committee is preparing to reach a consensus on inductees for the 2025 Class of the Madison Scouts Hall of Fame. Each nominee submitted for discernment comes from the 85+ year history of servant leaders and legends of the Madison Scouts Drum & Bugle Corps. The challenging part is sifting through so many worthy candidates; the blessing is knowing that each will likely be honored in time.
MSAA intends to honor members of the 2025 Madison Scouts Hall of Fame by campaigning for contributions to the C.H. Beebe Scholarship Fund, which is a direct and tangible way to support current marching members of the Madison Scouts. Stay tuned for your opportunity to get some cool Madison Scout swag.
The MSAA Hall of Fame Committee will conclude consensus discussions in early March, and a formal announcement of the 2025 Class of the Madison Scout Hall of Fame will be made in mid-April 2025.
Each month, we shine a light on one of our alums in the MSAA Alumni Spotlight to celebrate the incredible individuals who have marched with the Madison Scouts over the years.
Through the story of our monthly spotlighted alum, we’ll learn who they were during their time with the Scouts, who they’ve become today, and the profound impact the Madison Scouts had on their lives. From life-changing lessons learned on the field to lifelong friendships and career-defining moments, the Alumni Spotlight is your chance to see how the Madison Scouts experience resonates far beyond the drum corps season.
Our next alum to enter the Spotlight: Marco Iannelli

We ask you now to make a donation to the C.H. Beebe Scholarship Fund so we can ensure that financial barriers never stand in the way of someone’s dream of marching with the Madison Scouts.
As one scholarship recipient shared:
"The C.H. Beebe scholarship played a large role in my participation with the Madison Scouts. We all know that marching DCI is expensive, but at the time of application for this scholarship I did not know that it was worth it to have the experience with marching. I now know that marching DCI let alone with the Madison Scouts is worth it and thank you to the donors of the C.H. Beebe scholarship for making it possible...
