Cadets practice their 2018 show.
Here are drummers practicing...without their drums. Members of the Cadets Drum and Bugle Corps practice on a field next to the Sports Center on Sunday afternoon. The 150 members of the corps arrived in Ada on Friday. At this early-on stage, the drummers are learning their moves on the field. Later, they will take up their drums and add the music to their steps. The corps practice in small groups in the mornings and afternoons, no matter how hot the blazing sun. From 7-9 p.m. at the ONU stadium, the Cadets practice as an entire group. It takes much work and many hours to prepare for the summer season, which is very competitive. The Cadets and other corps will perform before thousands of spectators Coast to Coast all summer long. The large corps and 40 support staff will pull out of Ada on June 15 to begin their cross-country trek, entertaining many.
