The Middle Horn Leader 2006: (Color Version)

Featuring art by Don Daber and perspectives from members across generations, The Middle Horn Leader 2006 also chronicles the entire 1984 tour of the Garfield Cadets from the eyes of rookie mellophone player David Welch. This 1984 West Side Story production is now considered a "cult classic" in the history of Drum Corps International.

"If you have ever been a part of a group beyond your family that so significantly defines your very being, then you will be consumed by this. A real coming of age story." - Doug Rutherford

"...an example of the way drum corps' unique combination of music, athletics, passion, and discipline transcends time and space to bring together people from all walks of life." - Rachel Anderson

"Every year brings a new generation of Cadets and Middle Horn Leaders to continue our traditions." - Christen Juel

"Learn the history of The Cadets inside and out because it is like no other. This IS an experience that will change your life and one that you will never forget for as long as you live." - Paula Hyman

"It shows the pains, and sometimes tortures, that (members) will endure to be a small part of something great." - Kristie Staton Tharpe

5Unique Vantage Point Offers Insight to Success  Jun 06, 2008
By taking us into the day to day process of an elite DCI corps, Cadet Hall of Fame Member, David Welch reinforces the edict that there are no shortcuts to success and how perspiration and inspiration often go hand in hand. The writing is frank and honest, and is highly recommended for anyone who wishes to learn the ins and outs of overcoming obstacles to become the absoulte best at any chosen endeavour.

5Great book, expecially if you marched in the Cadets  Jan 31, 2008
I marched with David in the mellophone section in '86 and remember him writing a journal, as he sat one row behind me on the bus. Who knew where the jorunal was finally going to end up? I also marched in a different corps in '82,'84, and '85, and stayed at schools with the Cadets, so it was kind of a surreal experience to read what the Cadets were going through while I was with a different group!! I really enjoyed reading the book, as I never knew all the challenges the corps had that year (multiple vehicle break downs, no food, etc.). My prayers are with David now with all he is going through medically. He is a source of inspriation for us all. "Sharon K."
