The San Francisco Renegades Drum and Bugle Corps is an all-age Drum and Bugle Corps from San Francisco, California. The Renegades, a 501c3 non-profit organization, were founded in 1996 and competes in the Open Class division of the Drum Corps Associates circuit. ==History== The Renegades were founded in 1996 by a small group of people that got together simply for the love of the drum corps activity. In February 1999, the corps put the Renegade 2000 plan into motion, and added an infrastructure that not only included a world-class instructional staff, but a "Promotions Team" that included world class marketing, financial and legal consultants. The mission of the Renegade organization is to bring an unprecedented awareness and appreciation of the drum corps activity to the public through a comprehensive marketing and financial plan. The Renegades made their DCI debut in July 1999, at the Moonlight Classic contest in Stockton, California, and are one of two charter members of the newly formed DCI-Pacific Senior Division. In 2000, the Renegades fielded an expanded corps, which were received with standing ovations at every show. The year culminated with a proclamation by San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown honoring the Renegades as The Official Drum & Bugle Corps of the City of San Francisco! On October 1, 2012, The San Francisco Renegades received a 1-year suspension from participation in DCA events, for conduct detrimental to the good and welfare of DCA during the 2012 Championship Weekend. The Renegades are eligible to return to DCA competition for the 2014 season.〔http://www.dcacorps.org/?p=3247〕 The number "7" has an almost mythical stature in the corps, beginning with the charter performers (5 percussion and 2 brass....jokingly referred to as "seven people and a ham sandwich") and has been represented by the corps not only in the "7" on their current uniforms, but by the cymbal line forming a "7" at the end of their performances (save for a single instance where they formed a "J" to honor a very small corps named "Jester"), and often the shouting of "SEVEN!" by the corps. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Renegades Drum and Bugle Corps」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
