Christina Mavroudis-Dempsey talked with three ageout members of Blue Devils B just after their third-to-last performance at the Division II & III Prelims in Madison, Wis., on Aug. 8, 2006.

If you just go by the bare minimum the whole time, you're not going to actually feel the full force of what drum corps can give you unless you put your whole heart into it."
