This summer, Drum Corps International is partnering with USBands to put on a series of DCI 2 Day Workshops across the country. Led by Frank Troyka, participants will follow an intensive curriculum of music and visual techniques taught by Blue Devils and Bluecoats alumni and current instructional team members. Joining us for special sessions will be leadership legend Dr. Tim Lautzenheiser and Dean Westman, educator, clinician, designer and Program Coordinator of the Bluecoats.

Separate tracks for winds, percussion, guard and drum majors provide hands-on training for 1 day before spending a second day with Bluecoats instructional staff and Blue Devils members and instructional team .
